Perhaps we have already had contact with "magical" places in the forest and can imagine that a long time ago in the forest have also hoofed strange creatures, such as dragons, giants, dwarves. Of course, these beings have also known games. Two of them are presented here.

Games to: Explore forest habitat

An evening around the campfire is made for storytelling, and those stories today are, of course, about the forest.

Dusk is a special time in the forest. One has the feeling that silence returns to the forest. Probably this impression is based on the fact that the bird calls gradually disappear. But of course there is no peace in the forest, because now begins for many animals the actually active time of day.

 

When we hear "forest animal" we probably think first of the larger specimens of forest fauna, such as deer, stags, foxes, badgers, or perhaps martens or squirrels, but there are many more.

We get to know the forest as a habitat for plants in an experiential way. "Knowing" here means much more than just knowing the names. We learn about the characteristics and nature of plant life and try to get closer to them in different ways

The following suggestion goes beyond the actual forest day. We present here a frame story that takes place every day and that creates rather quiet, contemplative moments in the lively camp life.

We search and find surprising things in the forest

We have now playfully introduced ourselves to the forest floor. However, have we really noticed what it has on the ground?

Sensory Experiences - Playfulness

The given order of the program suggestions is one possibility among many.

Depending on the age group, it may be more appropriate to spread the "Forest Day" ideas over several days.

In the forest, there are various rules to follow


- What the children notice should be made an issue

- Stress in the forest is not a daily goal

How to create a forest day with groups

 

An accident has happened - what to do?

- Don't lose your head

- Take immediate measures and order

- Inform

Useful advice for various venues and situations

 

Program blocks in the camp program:

- in which all can participate

- which must "carry" over a long period of time 

- where material and location can be organized to some extent 

Four different viewpoints on orienteering:

- Wildlife and bird species in contact with orienteers
- Sensitive terrain areas
- Consequences for course layout
- Ecological orienteering calendar

The forest offers ideal conditions for hide-and-seek as well as adventure games. However, clear rules must be agreed and certain safety precautions taken

Your camp participants should have many play options and opportunities available to them in the non-programmed time in camp ("marginal times") in self-selected play groups, in pairs or alone

Enterprises are larger games and sporting events in camp, such as:

- Olympiads
- Games tournaments
- Major competitions
- Games festivals

What could be better on a Jungscharn afternoon than a good portion of mini-games? Apart from a brilliant input and the classic "Schoggibanane" for Zvieri actually almost nothing. Although I hope that every youth group leader knows many such mini-games, unfortunately the same games are often played, or even worse, no game comes to mind at the moment
Therefore it offers itself to arrange mini Game Cards.



The way to such Mini-Game Cards is visibly easy and is great fun.


1. Look for funny games in books and on the internet.

2. Divide these games into different categories (wild games, quiet games, etc.)

3. Consider from what age the game is suitable and how long it lasts.

4. Choose a motivated and creative mini-leader in the authority of your office and make him the knight of creative ideas.

5. This person will then do the main part of the work and design the cards.

If, however, you don't feel like or have time for this work, simply download the Mini-Game Cards our Jungschar, edit them even more to your liking, print them out and laminate them and the whole spit is done.

Do you re-buy all your spices before each camp - and then find more somewhere?

Spices have a long shelf life and can therefore be used again in the next Pfila
