Now that Spring is finally here I have gotten together with some blogging pals to bring you a Spring into Learning blog hop! My co-hosts (Enchanted Homeschooling Mom, Life with Moore Babies, ABC Creative Learning and P is for Preschooler) and I are each featuring spring themed round-ups for some fun Springtime learning! So make like a bunny and hop to each of my co-hosts for more great learning ideas!
Caden and I love to spend time outdoors and in nature no matter what the weather is, but especially in Spring after a long, cold, New England Winter. For this round-up I have decided to share some of my favorite Spring nature activities from across the web. I’ve included some great ideas for fun nature hikes and walks, ideas for nature notebooks or journals, some wonderful springtime nature tables, crafts with natural elements, sensory play ideas with nature, nature books about spring, and other fun nature activities! I’ve also included some of my favorite bloggers who write about a lot of nature activities!
