Nature Identity Portraits
Print and laminate heads of all different skin tones to prep for this activity. Using items from nature, create an image that represents YOU!
Fine Motor Leaf Pick-Up
Grab some clothes pins and paper bags to see how any leaves you can collect by pinching them to strengthen our hand muscles.
Bird Seed Ornament
Find some pinecones together, tie string to the top, spread peanutbutter and roll them in seeds. Talk about how animals need food to survive just like we do and how to respect animals in nature.
Sand Sensory Bin
Gather some sand, sticks, seeds, rocks, and any other natural items you can find. You can practice writing letters, sight words, count the objects, or simply just play in the sand!
Fine Motor Animal Dress up
Draw and cut animals from nature with cardboard. Wrap string around the body of the animal to help hold items in place. By using our fine motor skills, grab flowers, leaves, and other things found in nature to place between the string. Can you hold your animal up without nature falling out?
