At Home Activity: Nature Prints

Running out of ways to play outside? Today’s activity gives you and your kiddos another reason to be outdoors—and has the added bonus of encouraging them to deeply inspect the grooves and veins of leaves, petals, and other parts of nature.

At Home Activity: Upcycled Bird Feeders

Is anyone else going through groceries like never before? Staying at home means more meals at home, and more meals at home means more empty containers.

That’s where today’s at-home activity comes in. It shows how you and your littles can take an empty milk carton, egg carton, or even a clean takeout container and create a bird feeder. From there, your little ones can be in charge of refilling the feeder and keeping track of which birds visit it.

At Home Activity: Window Garden
