Nature Journaling for Kids @ Wellington Discovery Forest

Join the Nearer to Nature SW team and come explore, observe and record the wonders of the Wellington Discovery Forest through nature journaling. Nature journaling is a set of skills that can be taught and learned. You do not have to be an artist to take up nature journaling, all you need is an open mind, ability to observe and be curious. Together we will explore the forest and the ideas of “I notice…; I wonder… and It reminds me of….”. With guided activities involving observation, curiosity and making connections with things we already have experienced and know, we can grow our knowledge and appreciation of the wonders of nature. 

This experience is for children 8+ years and their accompanying adults. Only children require a ticket. It is a 1.5 hour activity.

Bring snacks and water bottles with you in a backpack as we will be heading out into the forest. Also bring a blank page activity book / exercise book or journal, lead pencil, sharpener and eraser. Bring coloured pencils if you want to. Wear long pants and enclosed shoes and dress appropriately for the weather - hat, sunscreen or jumper and raincoat.
