So easy and the kids can help What to do: - Collect natural items from the garden such as flowers, leaves, seed pods etc. You could even use shells from the beach - Use all sorts of containers, tubs or cake tins to freeze the natural items in water. Involve the kids with this and get them can helpPlace in the freezer and once frozen remove the ice from the containers. ... The kids will have lots of fun: Holding the ice Pointing out the different natural items Watching the ice melt Playing with water and experimenting with floating ice An extra challenge for older children 6yrs + Predict how long the ice will take to melt Use a timer to time how long it takes Use sticks, small rocks or other safe items to break larger blocks of ice.

10.01.2022 Karlu Karlu/Devils Marbles, NT Such a special place to explore. Have you visited Karlu Karlu before? This was the perfect stop for us to let the kids explore and run around to break up the drive between Darwin and Alice Springs. We can’t wait to stay longer and go camping next time.... Karlu Karlu is the traditional country for the Warumungu, Kaytetye, Alyawarra and Warlpiri people. This country is of great cultural significance, being able to visit this area is truly amazing. Karlu Karlu, is translated as ‘round boulders’. This stunning landscapes features a collection of gigantic rounded granite boulders, many of which are balanced on top of one another. Have you taken a photo of this magnificent spot? Please share a photo below For more information to plan your next visit, the Northern Territory Government has a great fact sheet: https://nt.gov.au//karlu-karlu-devils-marbles-fact-sheet-a Bush to Beach Nature-Based Programs, Karlu Karlu/Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve, NT. * * * * #bushtobeachnature #darwinkids #darwinbusiness #explorent #devilsmarbles #darwinmums #darwinlife #northernterritoryaustralia #darwinnatureplay #darwinbusinessmum

If you look closely you will spot marbles, bolts, bracelets, shells, snails etc. The male Bowerbird creates this magnificent ‘playground’ area to attract females. This is not the actual nest but more of an attractive mating spot.

07.01.2022 We had the first big rains in the early hours of this morning in and around Darwin The kids are having a great time this morning finding puddles and water in the backyard. It’s now a slightly cooler morning - 26 degrees (8am). This is the first big rain we’ve had in about 5 months, we have enjoyed a stunning dry season. Bring on the storms and rain during the build up to the wet season. Hot & humid but a magical time of year when nature bursts with life Bush to Beach Nature-Based Programs #darwinmums #bushtobeachnature #darwinkidsnatureplay #darwinnt #darwinbusiness #darwinbuildup #natureplay #darwinbusinessmum #ntlife

05.01.2022 Noticing things in nature: What can you see? An easy activity to enjoy on a walk or when out exploring. By simply asking the question ‘What can you see?’ we can promote interest and tune children into the environment around them. We went on a short walk around the backyard this morning and Miss 2 spotted some interesting things (see photos). She was excited to find some bees and also ‘the man’ which is a termite mound with clothes on in our neighbours backyard Benefits ...of this activity: Children will start to point out and notice different things in their environment. Watch this grow over time By repeating this activity some children may start to become nature detectives and notice things without being asked the question Noticing patterns in nature at different times of the day eg; the birds eat the berries in the afternoon. It is fun for children and adults of all ages to learn from each other. A toddler may notice something that can easily be missed by others! How to spark interest and take the activity further: Change the focus of what you are looking for eg; creepy crawlies, colours, treasures, leaves etc. This can vary according to age. Take photos of what you find to keep a ‘photo’ diary. Share with family and friends Paint a picture of what you can see Older children may like to research some facts about what they can see or what they have found. Any other ides? Please share below Enjoy Bush to Beach Nature-Based Programs #bushtobeachnature #darwinkidsnatureplay #darwinbusinessmum #ntkids #darwinnt #darwinkids #darwinbusiness #naturelearning #outdoorlearning #bushkids
