Sala: “Here, the forest lives by its own rules. Look – nothing is tidy, yet everything works. That’s wild beauty.”
Mandi: “It’s a little spooky to me. But also exciting. Like… every leaf is watching you a little. Isn’t that… magical?”
Sala: “That’s how animals feel when we don’t disturb them. Nature reveals itself to us only when we’re quiet.”
CHALLENGE: FOREST OBSTACLE COURSE AND THE SILENT NINJA
Become a forest ninja – move as quietly as possible among the trees, like a woodland creature.
Can you take 10 completely silent steps?
Do you hear more when you're quiet?
Create a forest obstacle course – choose 3 natural obstacles nearby:
Jump over a tree stump
Circle around a tree
Sneak past a rock without making a sound
Bonus: Compete with a friend – who can complete the course the quietest?
Did you know?
Dead trees lying here are full of life – they house beetles, larvae, and fungi that return nutrients back to the forest cycle.
