Outside Projects

We've been enjoying some simple outside projects lately.  We'll head out to a field behind our house and spend some time soaking up the last of the afternoon sun and trying out some fun projects.  Sometimes my littlest the slightest bit interested in the task I brought out, and that's fine, too. 

Some we've done....oldies but goodies!  Leaf rubbings:
 

 

Gathering berries to decorate pinecones:

 

We've also threaded leaves on a string to make a garland, collected acorns to paint, smashed acorns......
This has become a fun way for us to wind down before dinner, spend time together, and enjoy fresh air!
