Follow two children as they go exploring around their neighbourhood finding delight in the natural environment. This story can be read to children while they use their visual perception skills searching the illustrations for various items. It can also be used as a movement/drama/yoga activity encouraging children to go on their own exploration. This could be in their own neighbourhood, backyard, playground or even an imaginary one inside. The scenes in the book could be recreated with life size or small world figures/objects or children could use their imagination and make up their own scenes. They could even write of their own adventures in a story of their own.

This story invites children to the idea of removing shoes and socks and discovering how the natural world feels on their bare feet. There is evidence to suggest that playing in bare feet helps to support children’s growth and development and helps them connect to the natural environment. Follow this child as he explores how various surfaces feel on his feet. Rhyme, repetition and the use of adjectives to describe how things feel are included in this story to help support language development. A few yoga poses are included for children to try while they are standing on the earth.
