Make friends with a tree
Wonders of natureUnder 15 mins
What to do
Choose a tree that you think someone will like. Ask them to close their eyes (or use something to hand as a blindfold) and spin them round a few times. Guide them to their tree and get them to feel and smell it really carefully. Guide them away. Can they find their tree? Now they should choose a tree for you.
Lie under the tree and look up through the branches - what can you see?
Things to think about
- What did your tree feel like?
- What did it smell like?
- How did it feel to find your tree?
- What do you love about your tree?
- Which animals do you think live in your tree?
- Could you plant a tree somewhere?
