Mansfield children bake hedgehogs for fun

Youngsters at a Mansfield Woodhouse nursery baked some hedgehogs as part of their project about life cycles and animals.

Staff at Cherubs Mansfield Woodhouse, on Welbeck Road, said the children decided to make some bread hedgehogs.

Sarah Hickling, nursery manager, said: “The children enjoyed manipulating the dough cutting the spikes and putting the eyes on their own hedgehogs and got to take their creations home.

“The nursery smelt delicious with the homemade dough cooking and then children was learning about the nocturnal habits of the hedgehog and what they like to eat.”
