In the nursery, we introduce, encourage and foster the idea of appreciating nature in all its forms. From the smallest of ants crawling across the grass, to the towering trees and birds in the sky. Children are naturally curious beings and learning about the world around us can be incredibly fascinating for them.
A butterfly was found in the garden of one of our families and it was brought in to be observed as a learning opportunity. In the morning, it was still wrapped up in it’s cocoon, waiting inside patiently to emerge. Throughout the day, the children continued to check in on it and suddenly it started to wiggle and shake.
All of a sudden, the cocoon opened up and there, the butterfly emerged! Seeing such a beautiful and intricate process occur before their very eyes can help children to understand the more complex aspects of nature. It can help to teach them patience, observation skills and the life cycles of the natural world.
Take the time to look around you, investigate your gardens and surroundings and open your eyes to the wonders around you! #theinspirephilosophy
