Filled with loose parts and possibilities, with mud and dust, nettles and sky, transcendent hands-on moments and skinned knees. Richard Louv

🎄ADVENT🎄
Want to get outdoors more during the run up to Christmas?
My Advent calendar includes 24 simple nature/outdoor ideas for you to try. There’s a grid with the ideas on (one features numbers and one has no numbers for you to add your own) and all activities are on printable cards.
You could put them in your DIY advent calendars, peg to a tree, or use as part of your elf tradition.
If you need the link, comment ‘advent’ and I’ll send it over in your messages, or find it in the new resources section on my website. Members, it’s included in your membership.

Want to know what’s included in the Christmas nature tuff tray download?
All twenty four pages are printed and kept inside this document wallet to access when needed! I like to print and store them this way and then I can have a quick look through and take inspiration when needed.
There are ideas including a list of items needed, templates for some of the activities and the gorgeous Christmassy signs to pop into your trays too.
This and plenty of other Christmas content to download is on the website and all included if you’re a member, or you can purchase each one individually ☺️❄️🤶🏼🎄

Take some chalk outdoors tomorrow and have a go at some Pudsey Bear artwork. Children in need is tomorrow, my charity download is raising money for @bbccin 💛
Chunky chalk works best and is easier for little fingers to mark make with ⭐️

Pinecone counting was popular on the website last night. It’s a nice transition between Christmas and you can use the templates for adding Christmas decorations to count nearer the time.
The download includes a sign and ten trees to print, each with a pinecone featuring 1-10. Pop come pinecones next to them and encourage some 1-1 counting and number recognition.
Can’t wait to share all of my new Christmas resources with you. If you’ve already joined my membership, you’re in for a treat as I have so much to share with you over the next few weeks and it’s all included ✨❤️
