A mouse took a stroll through the deep, dark wood…….
🎶. Pause for a moment
what can you hear?
how many sounds can you hear?
🖐 How does it feel?
Can you find something that’s:
hard
soft
rough
smooth
Is the mud hard or soft?
- What would make it soft and squelchy?
- What would make it hard?
Find something rough and bumpy?
Can you do a tree rubbing using paper 📄 and a crayon 🖍
Find something that feels good to hold - a smooth stone, a pine cone, a stick, a leaf…….
🪞 What can you see?
Put a mirror on a tree trunk or table…. Then look down to look up.
Lie on the ground and look up at the clouds, what shapes can you see?
Smell 👃 & Taste 👅
Rub something between your palms to warm them and release their scent
If edible have a nibble ( try using some different herbs 🪴)
Move 🏃♀️
roll down a hill
go up and down some steps
kick up a pile of leaves
stretch out your arms and swoop & glide like a bird
bounce and jump on some spongy moss
