Time to Draw, Count and Get Outdoors.

When you are out and about on a walk why not take some drawing materials and draw what you see? You could try white chalk on a darker piece of paper or recycled cardboard. Or you could take a twig with a leaf and draw that back at home. Why not try drawing with a twig using water or make your own berry ink or something runny from the kitchen like soy sauce. Try using thick and thin twigs and see what kind of lines you can make. Paint on the ground outside. If you have some DIY paintbrushes then you can make really thick lines. Old wallpaper is good to draw and paint on. Try reusing packaging.

You can also adapt Waltener’s ideas and wind wool or string round objects that you scavenge from your walk and make a journey memory stick. Let’s get twining!

It is fun trying to identify trees from their shape or leaves. Take some photos and try to find out what they are called.

STEM have lots of science challenges to try too. Have fun exploring, observing and recording whether in science or art.
