Castles and Forts

Reception Bears families have taken on the challenge

to learn more about our topic on Castles and Dragons,

even when on holidays.

The first family got stuck in the traffic to Neuschwanstein,

so decided to go to Guimarães instead.

They might not have found a dragon,

but did they find a Unicorn instead?

In the bottom left you can see the statue of the

first King of Portugal.

These two little Bears went to Castelo do Queijo in Porto,

but it was closed.

They still managed to see a cannon and a drawbridge and took a photo to share with you.

They went to Museu do Papel Moeda instead,
and guess what?

They saw toy cars and vehicles

as well as miniture replicas of buildings, including a castle.

This family went to great lengths to visit a castle. They had to travel by plane and then go on a treck up the mountains.

Which country did they need to visit to see this castle?

This little Bear went to Póvoa do Lanhoso and found a Castle,
but there were no Dragons there.

You can see that the castle was built up high.
The enemies could not come near without being seen.
The mother of the first king of Portugal, D. Teresa,
lived in this castle.


This is the castle in Óbidos.

This family is on a Castle hunt. 




How many more castles will we see here?
