Bonanza
Summer
is in, school is out! Here are a few easy-to-do activities for you,
which may give you something more than just enjoyment.
Neighbourhood
watch
Go for
a walk around your neighbourhood and look at what makes one place
different from the other.
• Make a list of places you would like to visit. Locate them on
a map and make a trip there -- real or imaginary (based on facts
about those places of course)
• If you live near a stream or a creek, or a park, go there and
spend time talking about its uses
• Read about your state bird and state flower, and go for a bicycle
ride to a nearby park to find them
• You can watch special events, and concerts
Make
a museum
You
can visit the nearest museum. And
• Start your collection and build your own museum. You can choose
natural materials, starting from leaves to seashells and rocks.
Meet
and greet
Interview
the interesting people you meet, such as painters and backyard naturalists
in your neighborhood. They will be eager to share their knowledge
with you.
Agro
experience
You
can arrange for a village tour. You may compare your observation
about the village life with city life. Explore a village market,
for example, and find out how it is different from a city market.
• You can indulge in activities like organic farming, orchard management
and livestock management
Or simply go to a park, pack a picnic dinner and spend time with
your family.
