Have you tried the Dorset Countryside Scavenger Hunt yet?
Dorset Council's country parks - which includes Hardy's Birthplace and Thorncombe Woods, Durlston Country Park, Avon Heath Country Park and Moors Valley Country Park and Forest - have worked together to create this trail which can be done anywhere in the countryside.
The trial is a great activity to keep little one's busy outdoors. It encourages them to start hunting and find:
• Something spiky
• An acorn, pinecone or any seed• A chewed leaf (not by you)
• Something rough• Three different types of leaves (from the ground)
• An animal print• A soft feather
• Three shades of green They can even get creative and make a picture using the things they have found. Share the photo on social media by tagging #DorsetCountryside. Some other ideas include: • Nature's orchestra: grass blowing, log drumming, puddle splashing all create great noises - what noise can you make?• Mini homes: use any natural material to make a mini home for a mouse, hedgehog, maybe even a fairy - you decide!
