August-A New Month to Enjoy Nature

August-A New Month to Enjoy Nature

Welcome, August! 

In our effort to live seasonally and enjoy each month in the way nature presents itself, we created our August calendar. 

This month in the Northern Hemisphere, there is dramatic changes in our daylight.  We begin August tracking the exact time of the sunset, and end August tracking the exact time of the sunset.  

This awareness is helpful for children to physically stop and observe the changes outside. 

There are a few suggestions that may not be something you would like to do such as painting with mud  ( smile )  but I allow my children to do this from time to time.  I encourage a rich childhood that includes using your five senses outside.  Children should have the opportunity to smell and feel mud.  

Every month, I encourage at least one meal outdoors.  The day planned on your calendar may not be the best day for your family to eat outdoors, so plan a day this month to eat outside. 

There are many new additions coming to our shop, including more resources to help you live with the seasons and encourage a more simple and slow lifestyle.
