We look at all the living things in a garden from plants, bugs, to lizards — then explore what makes them happy.


INCURSION OUTLINE

  • We discover everything that’s essential to life in a garden, such as food, water, shelter, safety, and friends.

  • Next we unleash the children’s imagination as they pretend to fly, crawl, climb and feed like a bug.

  • From there, we head off on a soil safari where we play ‘worm bingo’ and discover creatures that live in the soil and how we deal with them safely.

  • Next we let our creativity run wild by getting the kids to build a home for their favourite garden bugs using found and collected material.


We supply all the materials for this incursion. For prices and availability, please send us an email.

We help the kids dig deep into the dirt — and their imagination — to make mud pies, clay mini-beasts and garden gnomes.


INCURSION OUTLINE

  • We discover through touch-and-play the different types of soil such as clay, loam and sand.

  • Then we look at all the little things that live in the soil.

  • Next, for no particular reason other than it’s fun and that soil’s good for the soul, we’ll make some mud pies.

  • Lastly, we’ll gather together some found objects, clay and soil to create some garden gnomes and mini-beasts.
