Individual Action Projects
Action Project A – Read about nature together or read alone, outdoors
Reading allows us to create and live in an imaginary world. If you don’t have a nature area nearby, find a book or magazine that is about something natural and enjoy a cosy moment indoors to read about it. If you are lucky enough to have a safe nature area nearby, try reading under your favourite tree or somewhere outdoors.
Send us a picture of your book/magazine and reading spot and earn 100 points!
Action Project B – Get a friend to join the Cubs Club
We know that CapeNature’s Cubs Club is all about learning, so why not get a friend to join? Let us know your friends name and the date that they joined and earn 100 points per person that joined the club because of you!
Action Project C – Learn something new about nature in the Western Cape
Pick your favourite animal or plant that is local (indigenous) to the Western Cape and see if you can find a fascinating fact about it on the internet or from a book. Let us know what your animal or plant is and what the new fascinating fact is that you found about it and earn 100 points per fascinating fact!
CapeNature also has a really great resource library, and you can visit it here.
