Going on a “Nature Walk” can be a fun and meaningful activity for the whole family to enjoy together.
A nature walk can be anywhere: The beach, a park, a field, or even down a neighborhood street or your own yard. There is no right or wrong place as long as it’s natural.
A nature walk presents endless opportunities for learning and discovering. Here are a few fun ideas on how to turn a nature walk into a Montessori activity:
Once back at home, place the items your child has found in a basket for observation and play. You can also make your own nomenclature cards for the items that you found along your nature walk to later match words to objects. (DOWNLOAD HERE – Montessori Nature Cards)
