Connecting Children with Nature at a Young Age is Important
Samvada News Bureau
Connecting children with nature at a young age is so important. In fact, nature inspires creativity in children and allows them to use all their senses. Children should be introduced to “Our Green World” – Plants and Trees. We should discuss about the different parts of a plant, seed germination, life cycle of a plant and its uses through various activities.
Noida has lots of open green area which enables us to teach and bring children closer to nature. We should take children for “Nature Walk” to explore the various plants and flowers. Nature Walk encourages the children to observe with all their senses. They can enjoy walking on the grass, feeling the twigs and the branches of the trees, observing the myriad colours of different kinds of leaves, smelling the fragrances of the flowers, feeling the warmth of the sun.
As they walk they can collect different types of leaves, twigs and flowers for the nature table of the school. We should organize hands on activities with terminology cards, plant jigsaw, matching of real fruits and vegetables with picture cards. Children would like to collect different flowers and enjoy flower decoration activity.
The “Shelling of the peas” can be an activity. We can also organize “peeling baby potatoes” activity and have fun eating potato chaat thereafter.
