Getting Started with Nature Notebooks

You've heard about nature notebooking (AKA journaling) or seen some beautiful shots of children's nature journals. But you have reservations... Your kids are not artistic (and neither are you!). It seems so simple, is it really worth my time? How do I encourage and inspire my kids to record in their notebooks? Nature notebooking is your child’s first science notebook. They learn how to wonder, observe, record, and make connections. These skills are essential for success in future STEM subjects. Nature study is truly the foundation of science. But most importantly it develops lifelong learning habits and an eye for beauty. In this video I talk about the principles and how to begin nature notebooking – the supplies you’ll need, what it looks like in real life (I’ll show you samples of my boys’ notebooks), and some troubleshooting in case your child isn’t as enthusiastic as you are! ⬇️ LINKS ⬇️
