Noticing Nature
View the Winter Postcard Collection
Winter Village
See – The ducks are looking for a drink from the frozen stream
Hear – All is still and quiet – except for the quacking ducks Hand/Touch – Fingers all numb from making snowmen and throwing snowballs
What do we need to build a snowman?
Winter Walk
See – Muffled footsteps as we walk through the blanket of snow
Taste – catching snowflakes on our tongues
What’s your favourite winter game?
Glowing Sunset
See– pinks, purples, many colours reflecting off the still water
Hear– Listen to the birds heading home to roost
Feel – the sun has lost its power but we can still feel the warm colours on our skin
What winter colours do you like?
Frost
See – Frost crystal, growing on the brambles making nature look strange and beautiful.
Hear – The robins sings his sweet melody, singing to stay warm I wonder?
Feel – The winter chill on our skin, Jack Frost is nipping at our nose.
Storm Breaking
Hear – water crashing up on the wall, throwing debris onto the path
Feel– the spray from the stormy water gets blown on our skin
Would we find flotsam or jetsam?
Starlight
See– stars lighting up the night sky, is that the milky way?
Hear – the night time coming to life, with distant waves lapping at the shore
The sun is heading to bed and the moon is coming out to play
What would you say to the man in the moon?
