Playdays Nursery in Blackrod, Bolton, took children from its forest
school to the nearby Tree Barn to choose the nursery's Christmas tree
from the thousands being grown there.

The owner of the Tree Barn, Chris Hodge, also set up an activity for the children, making bird feeders using pine cones and natural foods to take home and encourage birds to visit their gardens.
The children also made their own Christmas wishlists, which they took along and put in the big log burner to be sent to Father Christmas.
The Tree Barn supports Derian House Children's Hospice, donating some of the proceeds made from Christmas tree sales.
Natalie Hope, early years teacher, said, 'The children had a great time and the Christmas tree is now sparkling with lights at the front of our nursery.'
