GARDEN BIRDWATCH CHECKLIST
Garden Birdwatch Checklists featuring 5 UK garden birds. We have decided to focus on the most iconic and distinct looking birds you may see in a UK Garden in order to encourage young children to look closely at clear similarities and differences between a handful of birds, rather than confuse them with too many. Ideal for 1-6 year olds. Perfect for use in outdoor areas (perhaps laminated for multiple uses), but also for out and about exploration. Includes Magpie, Blackbird, Robin, Blue Tit and Pigeon.

FEED THE SPARROW COUNTING PUZZLES
Why not set up an invitation to play using these ‘Feed the Sparrow’ counting puzzles? Select those appropriate for your children (1-10 available) and allow them to match the number beside the sparrow with the corresponding number of hazelnuts to feed them.
Each pair has a different way of connecting as a puzzle for the children to match and so even if they haven’t learnt what the number looks like yet, but are beginning to say the numbers in order, this can be a fun way to introduce them to new challenges.
Once the puzzles are complete, why not line the numbers up in order and count together? If your children would enjoy a further challenge, leave out a number and see if they can spot which one is missing from the sequence.
Puzzles could also be used as a fine motor control/counting activity if left uncut. Children could be given an appropriate number for their learning and encouraged to place objects on the hazelnuts, counting as they go.
In addition, each number is also written as a word. For our youngest children, this adds to learning about text in the environment and how it has meaning. Our oldest children may start to recognise the words and associate them with the numbers. This will be beneficial for when they begin to read and write these words in subsequent years as they will have something to build on.
