Friendly Fox Designs
For Educators
You understand that education extends beyond the classroom walls. With Friendly Fox Designs, your institution can offer a unique outdoor learning experience that not only supports the curriculum but also fosters a love for the natural world.
Game Design Workshops
We don't just believe in education; we believe in engagement. Our game design workshops have received glowing reviews from both youngsters and educational providers. Partnering with Develop Outdoors, a CIC based in East Sussex, these sessions allow children to unleash their creativity in character and game design. The experience is enriching across multiple disciplines—nature, IT, and creative arts. What's more, children with special needs often find our motivational approach to design exceptionally beneficial for boosting their self-confidence.
Tailored Teaching Packs
We offer teaching packs and training sessions to local schools and organisations focused on child development. Whether your emphasis is on artistic storytelling or the technicalities of game development, we've got you covered.
