Mud play is one of our favorite things to do in the springtime! If given the chance, all kids are instinctively good at mud pies. Maybe you’ve even seen some of the awesome mud kitchen ideas floating around. This week, we were looking for something a little bit different to do with our mud. So …
For years I wanted to do a May Day celebration, but I was never quite sure what it was all about. It seemed like such a fun celebration of all things spring!
Who else has fun memories of dying eggs for Easter every year? Small traditions like these mean so much to kids and they remember little things like that for the rest of their lives!
Spring is the time for renewal and regrowth! That’s true for the natural world, but I know I personally feel the need for a bit of a refresh after the long winter months as well.
I have to admit that in the past I’ve been less than enthused about St. Patty’s day. And what I mean by that is I pretty much ignored it altogether. But then I had second thoughts.
As much as I enjoy winter activities with my kids, I’m definitely looking forward to spring! And even though the weather won’t be on the same page as me for another couple months, one way to help the wait is by reading books about spring!
I wouldn’t say I’m big on Valentine’s Day or anything, but I still wanted to come up with a Valentine craft for kids to make it feel special!
It’s kind of a natural instinct to hole up inside where it’s nice and warm during the winter months. But no matter the time of year, it’s still important to haul the kids (and yourself) outside for some fresh air, exercise, and play time!
Winter may have a reputation for being the dullest season, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still make some beautiful nature crafts this time of year!
As a new season approaches, it’s about the time that my family and I begin to compile our outdoor winter activities bucket list! If I may be so bold as to generalize, winter seems to be the least liked of all the seasons. And as someone who resides in a northern climate, I get it.
