This is our early Spring nature table.
If you click around here, you will notice I change our nature table often.
The boys interests change and I like to incorporate many different things for the whole family to enjoy.
For the Montessori and Science lovers, we incorporated flower arranging and dyeing flowers at the same time. The children picked colors (food coloring) for their vase, after adding several drops of the dye they added their flowers. We used Daisies. However, carnations work well too.
MY OTHER PROJECTS
As the weeks past (2 to be exact), they were able to see the plant absorbed its water by the roots, and with drinking colored water the petals changed. Fascinating and a lot of fun if you haven’t tried it- it’s a must.
Our wonderful Root family and fun felted chick set were the perfect addition to the nature table. I am a big fan of open ended Waldorf inspired toys.
This is the Early Spring nature table.
I added in our small Grimms rainbow, a favorite Spring book Flower Fairies of the Spring, and a sweet fairy from Wildflower Innocence.
To us it breaths Spring time into the house. The bright colors and kid friendly items draw the kids over to it daily. If you have a nature table at home, please visit my Facebook page and share a picture with us.
