Creating nature mandalas is a beautiful outside activity for your children. It requires focus and engages their creative will.

  • During your walk or outside play have the children collect small stones, leaves, pinecones, sticks, flowers, etc. 
  • Carefully place your found objects in all different types of patterns. They don’t have to be circular; they can be any shape and size that you wish. You may need to do it alongside them for the first time and model it for them. 
  • Ask your child what kind of mandala they want to make e.g. leaf, stone, pinecone, all of the above and they ask how they will create it. 
  • Tell a story about an outdoor creature, a frog, snail or worm for example. Ask them how they might make a maze for the creature to walk through.
