A Spring Scavenger Hunt






 

A Spring Scavenger Hunt

[15 Minutes]

Isn't it time for a break and a bit of fresh air? Invite your child to go with you on a spring scavenger hunt to have fun and learn about spring as well!


What to do:

  1. Invite your child to go outside with you and to see if he can find the things you name.
  2. Can he find a flower? Can he find grass? Can he find another flower that looks like the first one?
  3. Can he hear a bird? Does he see a bird? Can he repeat the sounds the bird makes?
  4. Look on the ground. Can your child see an ant or a worm?
  5. Let your child smell a flower, feel the damp grass, and splash in a puddle if it has rained lately!
  6. Show him the tiny buds on a branch and a caterpillar or insect.
  7. Enjoy your time together observing nature.

Let's Talk: Ideas to Explore Together.

  • Our nature walk was fun. We saw a bird, a flower and a bug.
  • What did you like best?
  • Would you like to go again soon?

Useful information:

While you are having fun together, your child is developing observational skills, listening skills, and large muscle skills.
