It’s Senses Week in Exploring Nature With Children!
Here are some links to help with your nature study:
- Seeing with outdoor eyes
- The Significance of Sensory Play
- Exploring the 5 senses During a Nature Walk
- Amazing Science – The 5 Senses (video)
Exploring Nature With Children is an open and go curriculum. To make it even easier, I have created a free calendar for you to download.
If you’re over on Instagram, do pop over and say hello! The Instagram page is very much about community; think of it as your virtual home school co op! Our community uses the #exploringnaturewithchildren hashtag, & also specific weekly hashtags to enable you to connect with other families working through the ENWC curriculum. This week’s hashtag will be: #ENWCsenseswalkweek
Happy exploring!
The Jul/Aug 2016 issue of Landlove article “Sensing Nature Through Our Soles” shows how to build a barefoot walk path, where you walk over mulch, then pebbles, moss, spruce cones, sand, straw and mud, finally rinsing your feet at the end. Holding hands, lead a child over the different textures.
Thank you for sharing this, Elen. It’s perfect for this week.
I miss Landlove.
