Spring is the optimum time for nature walks within Brisbane's many parkland reserves: listen to birdsong, breathe in the fresh air, and admire the flowering native shrubs. Sometimes, the addition of Little People to the mix just doesn't make for relaxing meanders through nature.IndigiScapes, Redland City Council's environmental education centre is located on 14.5 hectares in Capalaba, and includes three designated walking trails:Fairy Wren WalkWildflower WalkTallowwood View TrailFor more details, go here.

To encourage the Little People to participate and enjoy these walks, a Native Fairy Scavenger Hunt Sheet is available from Reception with the aim that children locate and identify certain Native Plants during their walk. On the back of the Hunt Sheet are colour photos of those plants including a short description. For example, "Wattles produce pretty yellow vibrant flowers on mass and brighten any landscape that they bloom together. There are many different types that are suitable for your garden and provide habitat and food for many local wildlife species like possums, gliders, birds and insects."



This is a FREE activity and ensures all ages enjoy the natural surrounds. For a reward after a successful family adventure, you could opt to visit the cafe for refreshments, or perhaps the Native Nursery, where you can purchase a shrub to plant in your garden at home.
