Urban parks are not only places where young children can play and unwind after school, but also excellent outdoor classrooms for discovering nature. Led by our professional environmental educators, children become “Eco Detectives”, exploring the plants and animals found within the park while completing a variety of fun and interactive challenges. Through hands-on investigation and discovery, children gain a deeper understanding of the biodiversity that exists within their everyday environment.
Learning objectives
- Introduce children to common local plants and animals, enhancing their ecological awareness
- Use exploration journals to interact with flora and fauna, sparking curiosity and interest in nature
- Encourage reflection on how humans and nature can coexist harmoniously, fostering environmental care
