Setting up a play dough fairy forest on the table and walking away is genuinely one of the better parenting/teaching moves I know. The creative play that follows is so exciting to watch. 🌿🍄

Going outside with kids? Make a simple list together before heading out: something poking through soil, something with a bud, something a bird might use for a nest, something that smells like outside again.

March is unofficially the start of mud season around here!
Quick #kidsactivity idea: Set out old pots, spoons, and muffin tins and announce that mud is allowed today. Waterproof boots and a change of clothes are the only prep required.

Bookmark this nature play for a rainy day: After rain, take sticks outside and redirect puddle water — dig a small channel, build a twig dam, float a leaf boat and time how long it takes to reach the drain.

A young person wearing a pink and purple winter jacket, an orange woolly hat and flowery welly boots is hanging from a low tree branch and swinging, with her feet clinging to the lower end of the tree. She is smiling and looking at the camera. We can see it is winter time as there is no greenery on any of the trees in the woods behind her.
Things outdoor practitioners say in February: "It'll warm up once we get moving." 🥶
(It does. Eventually.)

A young person standing in what looks like a school outdoor play area. He is wearing a black winter jacket and gloves. We can't tell the colour of the gloves as they are covered in mud. He is looking down at his hands, as he has cupped them together to allow him to gently hold a worm, in amongst all the mud on his gloves.
Reminder to anyone working outdoors with children and young people...
You don't need perfect sessions. You need real ones. The connection matters more than the plan.
