Starter Activities

Things that are good ease into nature activities for fall and winter, for people with less experience...

  • Seeds indoors in trays for sorting or making arrangements. If you can't collect seeds (like acorns, pine cones, etc), you can use store-bought seeds...like different size/colored dried beans, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. (be mindful of allergies).

  • Or a good starter activity is any kind of natural object arranging...you can use shells, seeds, stones, sticks, whatever you are comfortable using and able to find.

  • The leaf matching game, with pressed leaves

  • Using leaves to cut with scissors or with hole punchers. 

  • Using dried leaves in a large tray or sensory table as a sensory experience for students to crinkle and crush up. 

  • Introducing different types of squash/pumpkins

  • Tree bark rubbings (or leaf rubbings)
