Put together your own collection of the colours found in nature 

You can create a rich collection of colours using leaves, pebbles, nutshells, or dried flowers. All you need are a few small boxes or egg boxes to collect the items. You can organise your collecting activities by setting out to look for different shades of the same colour or by setting a time limit for collecting items, or you can do both. You can use the items you collected to create an interesting photo gallery. 

Practical information for parents: 

• avoid fruit that will rot.
