A scavenger hunt is a fun, structured way of focusing this curiosity on all the shapes, sounds, plants, animals and other elements of their surroundings, opening the door to identification and deepening their bond with the landscape around them. This activity creates a sense of knowing, of familiarity, which in turn leads to a feeling of belonging, of being at home in the natural world.  \nBy making connections between what is sought and what is found, children learn how one thing relates to another and hone the use of their senses. This can lay the building blocks for recognizing themes in other areas, such as reading and mathematics, helping children to sort, process and use information in a variety of settings. They also learn to make connections between their inner experiences and the external world. And all this through play!  \nGet ready  \nComing up with ideas for a scavenger hunt is easy: just think of outdoor objects that are common in your chosen area. (Obviously, avoid anything rare or poisonous!) You can also include experiences – for example, hearing a specific sound or feeling the wind on your face. Before you play, design a clue card with 9–16 things to find (adjust the number according to the age of t","cbCaiplfrwdeTp3Z","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiplfrwdeTp3Z","pdf",3981726,36,"English","# VE Day picnic\n## Mini beast houses and insect habitats\n## Stone/pebble art\n# Showing appreciation for key workers\n# Land art\n# Family tree art\n# Scavenger hunt","[{\"question\":\"What should happen during the scavenger hunt and after it ends?\",\"answer\":\"Hunters mark clues with crosses as they find them, with an adult helper allowed to encourage and hint without taking over.
