Learning from Nature at Home: Simple Experiments for Curious Adults
This presentation introduces simple, safe, and accessible experiments that adults can carry out at home to explore nature and environmental processes. Designed especially for people who may not have easy access to outdoor green spaces, the activities use everyday materials and focus on observation, curiosity, and reflection rather than scientific expertise.
The experiments encourage adults to reconnect with nature through small, meaningful actions—such as observing plant growth, tracking weather changes, exploring soil and water, or watching birds from a window or balcony. They are suitable for individual learning, group activities, or intergenerational use, and can be easily adapted for older adults or people with limited mobility.
The presentation shows that environmental learning does not require special equipment, large spaces, or prior knowledge—only attention, time, and curiosity.
Birds in Malta
Species, Migration, and Everyday Birds Around Us
The presentation also focuses on everyday birds—those you can easily observe from a window, balcony, or garden—and offers simple tips on how to recognise them by their appearance and behaviour. No prior knowledge of birds is needed.
It is suitable for community groups, care homes, NGOs, and anyone curious about the wildlife around them.
The talk encourages simple bird observation at home and highlights how understanding birds helps support conservation and appreciation of Malta’s natural heritage.
Explore Malta’s birdlife and learn how to recognise the birds around you.
