         <description><![CDATA[<p>In the morning my street is very quiet also I hear people getting ready to go to work and vehicle sounds, wind, birds chirping, bright sunshine and the ground is wet, leaves on the floor. I feel morning walks are very special and makes the brain so refresh. This sensory engagement allows children to explore the environment by touch sound sight, smell and movement, Helping the children curiosity and imaginative play. By interacting with natural resources like sounds and scents, children develop deeper emotional and cognitive connection to place also they learn to respect their land and ancestors.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>The street is quiet, except for the hum of a distant car, and a plane departure The morning air is so refreshing, wrapping around me like an embrace I know before. I walk slowly, feeling the cool sidewalk, the rough texture of fallen gum leaves brushing against my fingers. Also felt the next season autumn in autumn orange leaves. Birds chirping short sharp whistling from magpies, cockatoo they so steady chatter of lorikeets in the trees, The smell of damp earth blending with the sweetness of blooming Roses from my Neighbours fence, and creative trees trimmed.</p><p><br/></p><p>In childhood, this walk was a journey into wonder. The cracks in the sidewalk were steppingstones, the morning mist a secret in the hidden world. Leaves remind s me the seasons, boats and crown royalty, sticks can transform into magic wands. Every morning was a time to discover, create and to play.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Morning walks gives a sensory richness that aligns with the Wilson's (2007) argument that natural environment helps children to be creative. the touch of rough barks, smell of soaked rain and the sounds of birds in the sky and trees vehicle sounds also the wind sound creates a multiple sensory that invites the kids to open ended exploration.</p><p><br/></p><p>Wilson (2007) tells the nature as a stage for creativity play, where children will engage in storytelling, roleplay and movement. My childhood walks in this street mirror this idea. The feeling of touch, smell and sounds weren't just details: they imagine how I imagine the natural atmosphere. The sidewalks can be imaginary journey of walks, and the cool air breeze feels an adventure.</p><p><br/></p><p>Gana and Krull's concept of natural sensory learning tells how children absorb thing from nature sense, deep emotions and cognitive connections in early childhood, sensory experience like the feel of wet grass, fragrance of flowers it becomes child's inside idea of the world.</p><p>This memory gives a strong sense of place, how children should interact with them and learn from their environment.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Reflecting on my morning walks, I see the importance of creating an environment for children to engage with unplanned sensory play. Also helping children that outdoor play helps curiosity, creativity and it will help children to understand that classroom settings is not the only structure to learn.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong>Natural materials</strong>-Leaves, sticks and stones as open-ended playing items.</p><p><strong>Outdoor exploring</strong>- Helping children to identify how the weather light and sounds change. And listen to different sounds.</p><p><strong>Barefoot play-</strong> making children feel different textures and also its good for them to build connections with the nature.</p><p><br/></p><p>By valuing nature learning I will help children to create and develop a meaning full environment from their surroundings. Also, it helps them a lifelong appreciation for nature and respect and place our ancestors too.</p><p><br/></p>]]></description>
