Birdwatching Workshop for Kids

At a small but very diverse wetland in the Algarve, Portugal called Alagoas Brancas (it is a hotspot on eBird) we will introduce children from about 5 to 10 years to birdwatching. We will talk to them about migration of birds and why water is so important. We will do activities to get them involved: such as actual birdwatching,  journaling their observations in a prepared journal that we will hand out before we set off, playing games, singing songs and doing a creative project that the children can take home.
