AdventurerKatziThe forest is full of animals. They are not always visible at first sight. It is then called to pause and observe very closely. This is not possible in passing. You should take your time for this. Children are searching masters, encourage them to walk through the forest with all their senses. A game idea is this search for traces. This is suitable for a children's birthday in the forest. All you need for this is 4-5 bands (e.g. 50cm long barrier band pieces) with which it should mark found animal tracks visibly. Afterwards the children show their found traces.
Traces mean footprints here, but also all the remains of animals, such as cave entrances, spider nets, nests, food tracks on leaves and trees, mole hills and so on. All traces of animals count here. Try it out and be curious how many traces children find.
Each child gets 4-5 ribbons (about 50cm long pieces e.g. barrier tape).
Discuss in which part of the forest the children are allowed to look around. Take paths, distinctive trees or plants as natural limits and discuss when you meet again. Tip: The starting point is best suited as a meeting point.
Anyone who has found something marks this track with a ribbon. To do this, you put it under a stone or tie it to a branch so that you can find the spot again.
Important rules:
Make sure you don't take anything with you, everything stays in its place.
? Nothing will be torn down, picked or destroyed!
? Don't worry about trampling or falling off while you're running!
? You can also take pictures of beautiful finds!
? The tapes are all collected at the end and taken home!
If everyone has attached his bands, you meet again at the starting point. Now you show yourselves your finds. Run from band to band and marvel at the many tracks.
Take the tapes back home!
Spider nets
Empty snail houses
Mouseholes
Wrapped leaves
Birds' feathers
Earthcrows of earthworms
Mucus traces of snails
Traces of larvae
Larvae cocons of animals
Holes in tree stumps
Apples or wormholes in apples, etc.
Self-made flags made of crepe paper and a wooden skewer are suitable for this.
Place the flags so that you can recognize them from afar.
Make sure you don't destroy the site you discovered.
Take the flags or ribbons back home.
Have fun exploring! What did you find? Depending on the season, you will also find different tracks. Go on a journey of discovery.
