No. 25 Join nature's band
Head to any spot away from the road and loads of people, then stop and listen. What can you hear? Is it a skylark high up in the sky, or an early bee buzzing around your feet? What are they saying? Maybe it’s “Summer is coming” “get off my land” or “yummy, food”.
What noises can you make, and what do they say? Try banging stones together, squelching though mud, sploshing through puddles, skidding across gravel or making a grass harp. I’m sure you can thing of many other things.
No. 23 Get up for the sunrise
Sunrise is amazing (and noisy) in the Spring. Try to get to the top of one of our hills and face east. This is the direction the sun rises in.
When the sun peeks above the land, you’ll notice the sky change colour. Can you describe all the colours you can see?
Birds can be very loud in the Spring too. It’s called the dawn chorus. See if you can pick out individual birds amongst all the noise.
