And why were they lost in the forest in the first place? What was mom doing?

The children may have wandered away from their mother out of being curious.

Very lucky that the kids are found on the same day. Search and rescue do not generally found the people within the same days.

If kids are not familiar with their surroundings it only takes a minute or two to get lost.

It's so easy for kids to get separated from their parents. They are so curious and adventurous. Thank goodness they weren't out in the forest too long.
