Mindfulness is a great way of clearing your mind and becoming more aware of your surrounding environment.\u00a0 It allows us to live in the present moment and appreciate what is around us. \ud83c\udf31\ud83c\udf42\ud83c\udf44<\/p>\n

A safari walk is a great way to introduce mindfulness to children and can turn an everyday walk into an exciting adventure.<\/p>\n

On your safari walk your aim is to notice as many birds, bugs, creepy crawlies and other animals as you can.\u00a0 Try and spot anything that walks, swims or flies. \ud83d\udc1d\ud83e\udd86\ud83d\udc14\ud83d\udc26\ud83e\udd89\ud83d\udc34\ud83d\udc0c\ud83d\udd77\ud83d\udc04\ud83d\udc11\ud83d\udc3f\ud83e\udd94\ud83e\udda1 \u00a0Look at how amazing they are! What sounds can you hear? Can you hear birds chirping?\u00a0 What can you feel? The cold breeze on your skin?<\/p>\n

To do this young children need to focus all of their senses and it creates a state of awareness to the present moment and an appreciation of the world and nature around us.<\/p>\n

During this second lockdown, which may be causing added stress for both adults and children it is important to make a little time each day to clear our minds.<\/p>\n

Wishing you all a calm and mindful day, \ud83d\udc9b\ud83d\udc9c\u2764\ufe0f\ud83d\udc9a\ud83d\udc99<\/p>\n
