What kind of environmental learning are you focussing on?

Trees, grass, leaves, minibeasts, flowers... or something like recycling?

We are looking at spring flowers and trees for the first 2 weeks of May because the children are fascinated with the blossom and the buds. We will be finding out why buds grow and linking it to life cycles.

This is a great website to get ideas that can be adapted to most/ if not all age groups, and covers every aspect of outdoors- trees, flowers, mini beasts etc
You can download packs tailored to Spring, Summer etc or single activities depending on what you want.
