Location and contact ↗Take a closer look
Give each child a small page to fill in their own way. A drawing, a word or a question can capture what they noticed. Choose one activity together and leave time for something unexpected.
A palm in three lines
Draw the trunk, add the curve of one frond, then mark the leaflets along its edge. Look up again and change one detail to make the drawing closer to the tree.
A minute of listening
Stand together and listen quietly. Which sound seems closest? Which is farthest away? Draw a little map with a dot for each sound, then compare your maps.

LuLu dates
LuLu’s rounded form makes a useful first shape for a young observer. Sketch one curved edge, then look for the small wrinkles that interrupt the outline.
Read the LuLu guide ↗Kholas dates
A Kholas date offers a study in golden and brown tones. Look at the top of each fold where light falls, then at the darker line where the skin turns away.
Read the Kholas guide ↗Mozafati dates
Mozafati dates have soft flesh and dark skin. A small reflection can make the curve of the fruit easier to see. Leave that area blank in a pencil sketch.
Read the Mozafati guide ↗Farz dates
The glossy skin of Farz gives the eye a clear point to follow. Change your viewing angle and notice how the highlight shifts while the outline stays the same.
Read the Farz guide ↗Majdool dates
A Majdool’s elongated shape is a good contrast to a round LuLu. On the same page, sketch their silhouettes side by side and compare their length and width.
