Connect your Rainbows, Brownies and Guides to the ocean with our free resource packs

Getting started

Our free, specially-created resources include everything you need to teach your group about the ocean and how to care for it.

The activities are designed to empower your group by showing them how simple actions can make a difference to the health of the ocean and life within it.

Rainbows

Go on a virtual visit to the beach, join Turtley the Turtle on her exciting journey across the ocean, and learn simple ways to reduce single-use plastic by planning a plastic-free party.

These activities are based around caring for the environment and reducing single-use plastic.

Brownies

These fun, hands-on unit activities use experiments and crafts to bring to life the problems of ocean pollution and overfishing.

For younger Brownies, we’ve created activities that use their imagination and role play to transport them to the beach and help them understand the challenges faced by marine animals.

Guides

These activities cover a range of topics, from the impact of fashion and beauty on the ocean to careers in the conservation sector and a mindfulness activity linked to the sea.

With a focus on investigation and action, these activities aim to inspire your group to learn how they can make choices in their lives to improve the health of the ocean.
