20 Ways to Explore Natural Materials in the Spring
I have to say exploring with natural materials has to be one of my favorite ways to learn and play. Nature walks, counting rocks, finding a rainbow among flowers, building with sticks, a mossy green sensory experience, these are just a few of the many wonders nature gives us. I think it’s important to allow children to explore natural materials throughout the year. Today I am sharing ways to explore nature in the spring. Every season brings a lovely change…
