Introduction: Challenge somebody to pick up natural items of your choosing. Make it harder by asking for a certain colour, shape or size. Enables the participant to look closely at the natural environment around them as they discover items they didn’t realise were hidden away. Exploring textures and different materials
Instructions:
- Choose a natural item for the other person to find. For example if you choose a leaf then your partner has to go and find a leaf.
- They then challenge you to find something
- Keep going until you run out of ideas of items to seek out
Here are some examples of items:
● Stones
● Sticks
● Feathers
● Metal
● Flowers
● Bark
● Leaf
Notes:
To increase the challenge use the internet to identify any object you find. Once you start identification pick specific species i.e. a birch twig, leaf or bark. Don’t take any living items, only scavenge from the ground.
