We've worked with Scottish Book Trust, Smart Play Network, Parent Club Scotland, & Education Scotland, to make sure our adventure pack is full great resources, tools, and ideas so you have everything you need to make magical memories this summer!
Click the images below for a closer look at each activity and see our full adventure pack at the bottom of the page to continue the adventure and find even more incredible ideas and resources!
All you need to do is hide away the items around the house or garden and leave a clue in their schoolbag to get the hunt started. Having a small prize waiting for them at the end as well will be the perfect high note to end the summer holidays on! 🏆
Listening to Nature
Get your wee one to choose a favourite tree and give it a hug to connect with nature then sit quietly for a minute or two with their eyes closed so they can truly listen to the world that surrounds it. Can they hear birds, insects, or rustling of leaves in the wind? 🍃😌
Summer Memory Boxes
On this adventure, we’re gathering the treasures we’ve collected over the summer holidays and making a memory box so we can look back on all of our adventures. Every piece of treasure tells a story and together they’ll tell the tale of your summer! 💫
Blowing Away Worries
Being mindful doesn’t need to be difficult or dull. Helping your child point to where the worry is in their body, and then having them copy you to learn how to control their breathing, is a great start. When they’re ready, they can take a nice deep breath to blow away their worries and watch them float away! 🌬️☁️
Reading Together
For the final activity of the holidays, we’re sowing the seeds of mindfulness and resilience through storytelling so that your wee adventurer can grow confidently 🌱😎
Every week we’ve been sharing excellent hand-picked book selections with the help of Scottish Book Trust, and this week is no different.
We’ve included fun and impactful books so your child has the tools to help them face any obstacles they may face during their next year of adventures 😌✨
To make sure every wee adventurer gets the chance to be amazed – we’ve ensured our recommended books are available for FREE in Read, Write, Count and Bookbug Bags as well as local libraries!
