welcome to dirtgirlworld
your world of nature play, music and sustainability fun
We begin our story by honouring the Bundjalung people, the traditional owners of the land where dirtgirlworld first sprouted.
step into the naturehood
In dirtgirlworld, we’re all about getting outside, getting grubby, and discovering the joy of nature. Through music, sustainability education and eco-adventures, we help families, early childhood centres and schools grow together.
Welcome to your online naturehood – full of muddy music, nature play, creative adventures and tiny actions that make a big difference. This is where imaginations sprout!
You can watch our shows on ABC iView, explore our videos and music clips, and dig into the fun from home with our Get Grubby Families membership.
We’re so glad you’re here, ready to join the adventure!
With wheelbarrows full of nature love,
dirtgirl, scrapboy and Costa the Garden Gnome

our unreal blog
award-winning eco-entertainment and sustainability education
We’ve been celebrated across Australia and around the world for creating joyful, practical ways kids and families can connect with nature, get outdoors and live more sustainably. From EMMY wins to Green Globe honours, and with our founder Cate McQuillen named the 2025 Professional Environmental Educator of the Year, our awards shine a light on the everyday magic of caring for the planet.
nature love
Go outside and gather a few small flowers or leaves (make sure they’re safe and friendly ones). Grab a bandaid and write a happy word or picture on it.
Gently press your nature treasures onto the bandaid and stick it on your arm, hand or even your gumboot!
Now you have your very own nature tattoo!

Whether you're just starting out or already growing strawberries, herbs or compost, you're welcome here!
Join the kid-grower movement and celebrate growing your own food. Every garden makes a difference — one family, one street, one community at a time.
OUT NOW - HAPPY SONG
The wind visited me today. Not for very long. Just long enough to borrow my hat, tickle my hair and leave a tiny feather at my feet! If the wind knocked on your door...what do you hope it would bring?
