You can break it into several different days, as we do on our summer vacation each year. Or you can break it down into small 15 minute segments for a family walk.
Choose a theme that you want to find. Then start looking at things in a whole new way! You'll be amazed at where you find your themes, without ever having seem them before. It's especially fun if you have a camera with you.
We start with circles, because they're generally the easiest to spot.
How about "vivid colors".
Lines.
A different day, different location. More circles.
We've also done symmetry, arcs/crescents, triangles, grids, color of the day, numbers (if 3 is the number of the day but the find the word three they get "bonus points" - which really mean nothing, but it increases the challenge.) This is such a fun activity!
What a great idea! And such a fun way to teach children the different shapes!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a great idea! I see some road trip fun in the future!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea! Something you can have fun with anywhere. I am thinking about using it to spice up errands: we can play in the car, the store, waiting in line...anywhere. Thanks for a great idea.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun idea- every time i take a walk with the kiddos, my 6yr old asks " what should we play while we're walking??" I've been majorly running out of ideas, so thank you! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun idea! Thanks for sharing, we'll be doing this in the near future!!
