Growing Stories

Children investigate a range of natural features of the yard by thinking about, talking about and describing how these things grow. They will look at parts of plants and explore where they come from and how they grow, engaging in role play and creating and making activities to develop and represent their knowledge.

This activity is designed to help connect children to the wonders of the natural world through sensory and play-based learning. It is designed to be taught outside. By spending time outdoors and connecting to nature, children are more likely to care for and conserve nature as adults.
