The weather around here has been absolutely bonkers lately. Between rain, snow, hail, clouds, fog, thundersnow (!!), and yes, even a bit of sun… whew, the weather app has certainly gotten a lot of use! It also makes it the perfect time to enjoy this weather activity from Seasonal Living with Littles! Before we get…

Winter Art Activity: Crayon Resist Winter Landscape
I love the simplicity of crayon resist art. It seems when the weather gets cold we turn to winter art projects a lot. Crayon resist is definitely one of my go to art projects for kids – so easy and so pretty. We first did this winter art project 5 years ago! At that time…

Winter Nature Walk Ideas
We have been spending more time indoors than usual lately. It is February, which is a month I am not too fond of, and it has been so cold! But today, we braved the weather and went for a winter nature walk. Like always, once we were all out in the woods, we had a…

I have made it a point not to begin the title of my posts with “The Best” … I know, as a blogger, that it is a good way to call attention to my post and maybe gain me a few new readers … however, being “the best” is not at all what this blog…
