In this incursion, we take the kids on a worm safari to discover how they turn waste into wonder.
INCURSION OUTLINE
We identify waste items that worms will eat, focusing on sustainability and recycling.
Next, we head off on a soil safari where we play ‘worm bingo’ and discover what kind of creatures live in the soil and how to deal with them safely.
From there we make ‘worm parcels’ which are like little mobile homes for our worms to help them bed-in to their new worm farm or compost bin.
Now the kids know how to make worm castings and compost, we use these skills to make seed balls filled with homemade compost for the children to take home.
We supply all the materials for this incursion. If you’d like to keep the worm farm or compost bin after the session, let’s discuss how we can help you. For prices and availability, please get in touch by clicking on the button below.
