Spending Time in Nature

Being outdoors can help to reduce anxiety, improve your mood and even increase your self-esteem. Spending quality time in nature is a great way to improve your mental wellbeing and help you to keep well.

Waterways Ireland has developed lots of practical educational content for primary school children for activity at home or in nature. They share links and inspirational content for families to use over the coming weeks of social distancing. Activities planned include a Bugs and Beasties workshop for Halloween

Incredible Edibles have a range of activities on their website, from resources to help children learn about different foods, to tips on gardening

Spending time visiting our national heritage sites is a great way to spend some quality time outdoors. Heritage Ireland will be running some online events over Halloween, so check out their Facebook page for more information
