Course overview

Do you want to want to support your child's wellbeing through spending more time in nature? This course aims to promote physical and mental wellbeing through engagement with nature. Each week, craft activities will be planned around a high-quality story. Through outdoor learning you and your child will discover more about the world around them including learning about habitats, minibeasts and looking after the environment. Using recycled and natural resources, you will create items linked to the story you have read. 

Course content

You will work with a tutor for around 1 hour finding out about habitats, minibeasts and looking after the environment, in an outdoor setting. You will then work with your child in school for 30 minutes on a shared craft activity using recycled and natural materials to make items such as bird feeders, bug hotels and suncatchers.
