Daffodil Day Activity Ideas

Updated: Aug 28, 2023

Daffodil Day on Thursday 31st August 2023. Daffodil Day is a significant annual event dedicated to raising awareness and funds for cancer research, support services, and prevention programs. For educators and teachers, it provides a unique opportunity to instill the values of empathy, community involvement, and social responsibility in young minds. By participating in this day, you're not only offering moral and financial support to cancer patients and their families but also contributing to the essential work of funding life-saving research.

In a childcare or educational setting, Daffodil Day can be a profound teaching moment. By incorporating activities aligned with specific learning frameworks like EYLF, QKLG, or MTOP, you can engage children in meaningful play-based learning while also contributing to a critical cause.

We have variety of activities suitable for different age groups, each mapped to the relevant learning outcomes of these frameworks. This ensures that while children are enjoying these activities, they're also hitting key educational milestones. Whether it's creating origami daffodils or engaging in a daffodil-themed scavenger hunt, these activities provide holistic learning experiences that cater to children's cognitive, social, and emotional development.
