Discover the Seasons: Color Hunt

A great way to learn more about the seasons is to get out and into nature. We recently investigated spring with a colors of nature color hunt and I'm thrilled to be sharing it over on the Melissa & Doug blog.

This activity is a fantastic way to encourage your kids to pay attention to the details. R was noticing far more than just colors on this nature walk, and observing nature closely was a fun way to learn. We plan to do this each season and compare his findings. 

To find out more about our colors of nature hunt and get the free printable record sheet, please visit  the Colors of Nature Color Hunt post. 

Happy hunting!
