Float Sticks Down a River

Floating sticks in a stream and watching them meander their way down, over rocks and even over a waterfall, can be a relaxing activity. But, this activity can be so much more! If you’re wanting a calm, mindfulness activity just watching the stick’s journey might be enough. However, for some fun you could play ‘Pooh Sticks’ (see the video for the Pooh Bear story that goes with this game!) See whose stick will win the race.

Older children, or students, can learn lots from doing a ‘Slowest Stick’ race. This is a fantastic idea from the Science Learning Hub. Click HERE to download and print the resource. The aim of this activity is to look at the stream as a habitat and think of it from an animal’s perspective. Would this stream be a good place for animals to live? Could the habitat be improved?

Wow! We love that there are 3 completely different ways to use this nature connector ranging from calm and peaceful, to fun and exciting, to a thoughtful learning experience. How cool is that! Who knew you could get so much from a stick and a stream? Have fun, stay safe, and let us know how you used this nature connector.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
