It’s almost June, which means #30dayswild is back! #30dayswild was set up by The Wildlife Trust to encourage young people to get out in nature.
It’s where you to do one wild thing a day throughout the whole month: for your health, well being and for the planet. The Wildlife Trust provide packs and materials and you can still sign up and join in, it’s completely free! Once signed up, you will be able to download and print and abundance of material and things to do throughout the month of June.
Here at TMC, we wanted to encourage you guys to join in with #30dayswild. So, we ditch our normal # challenge for the month of June and instead do our #TMC30dayswild challenge!!
We are so excited to be bringing this challenge back for it’s third year. It is always such a hit, and some of you have already been asking if we are doing it again this year. The answer is yes. Yes we are, and it will be bigger and better!
How TMC #30dayswild Challenge Works…
We will each have a team this year. Meaning there will be 5 teams in total!
Below, we have listed over 100 things/activities/outings for you to do – they are all nature based. They are split into groups, with each activity worth either 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and a whopping 50 & 75 points depending on the group they are in.
If you would like to join in please let us know by sending us a DM on Instagram @ThatMamaClub. We will then create teams by a name picker or out of a hat. Then, throughout the month of June, you and your team pick and choose different activities from the list to do. You post on your socials as either Stories, Reels or a grid post. Tagging your team Leaders and using #TMC30dayswild.
As well as that, each day we will be sharing our favourites over at TMC – both on stories and the grid, so keep an eye out!
We will then keep a tally of our teams scores, either in the form of whatsapp/instagram team chats. Then, at the end of each week – we will see who’s in the lead. Thus making it a bit of fun! At the end of the month, we will see which team has won overall.
It’s all a bit of fun, encouraging us to get outside more! Please see the list of activities below…
