sound walk

 

Looking for more quality outdoor activities for your children? I am always on the lookout, and today I didn’t have to look very far for an idea. My kids were at a playdate (at the home of one of the awesome moms in my babysitting co-op) where they took part in a sound walk! Doesn’t that sound fun? Lucy couldn’t stop talking about it!

Not only is a sound walk entertaining, but it also allows children to become more aware of the world around them and heighten their sensory awareness- so they are learning and developing as they play!

A sound walk is easy to do! Grab a pencil and paper and go outside to record all the sounds you can hear. (I’ve included a free printable you can print out and use for your walk.) So head outside and let the fun and excitement begin!

 

This is the closest I could get to getting a photo of both kids on the sound walk. Theo is just always in motion!
