Churchyard Nature Activity Pack - To Help Children & Families Explore Your Churchyard

This printable Churchyard Nature Activity Pack is ideal for encouraging children & families to explore your churchyard & discover the amazing biodiversity it has to offer.


The sheets within the pack can be left in your church for visitors to explore, used with schools, or added to any environmental events you may be hosting. They're ideal to share throughout the year, & suitable for all ages.

Churchyards are fabulous places to discover a whole variety of wildlife. There is always something new to find! This pack is designed for children to take a closer look around your outdoor space & see for themselves all the natural treasures it offers.

In the Nature Activity Pack, you'll find:

:: Prayer Walk Sheet - offering children the chance to actively pray for wildlife as they walk around the churchyard

:: Tree Detective Sheet - inviting children to find out more about trees in or around your churchyard

:: Nature Frame - for children to draw their nature finds. If you wish, you could collect some of the artwork & create your own art gallery in the church to celebrate your wild churchyard.

:: Multisensory Scavenger Hunt - to encourage children to explore the churchyard using their senses.

:: Invitation to Pause, Rest & Listen - a printable sheet with 6 emotion cards encouraging children to explore how the natural space within the churchyard makes them feel. One way to use this is to place the invitation sheet & cards in a quiet space in your churchyard, either on a bench or on picnic blankets, where families can pause, rest & listen to the sounds around them.
