Celebrate World Environment Day

Activity time: 20 minutes

Nature is all around us. It’s the air we breathe, the food we eat and the water we drink. The trees, the rivers and the feathers we find on the footpath.  

In this video we make binoculars and nature exploration bags and learn about looking after the environment and the places we live.
