It's Nature Journaling Week! This week we've spent
It's Nature Journaling Week! This week we've spent a whole day outside painting the last of our sunflowers; been on an excursion where we observed vegetation, macroinvertebrates, and tested the water at different locations to compare quality; and yesterday Miss 12 was busy identifying weeds in our yard, sketching them, and making notes in her nature journal.

Do you do nature journaling with your kids? If not, this week is the perfect week to introduce the idea!

Want more ideas like this in your week?
Every Friday I send Inspiration Is Here subscribers three fresh activity ideas they can offer their kids. Simple ways to introduce interesting topics, explore the world together, and provide opportunities for meaningful learning.
Comment INSPIRE and I'll send you the details ❤
