Senses

Taken from our Plants, Animals, Water & Soil (PAWS) programme. These lessons and activities help children deepen and broaden their understanding of nature and encourage them to investigate, observe, and connect with the natural world on their doorstep.

A sensory version of I-spy encouraging children to observe the school grounds and garden through each season of the year. Combining this sensory game with some harvesting and
tasting makes it an even better game!
