Beautiful leaves are falling on the forest grounds, beechnuts, hazelnuts and chestnuts can easily be found (a tasty discovery!), and upon close forest floor examination, a world of interesting insects can be explored. A little walk outdoors, just a few steps in the autumn nature, opens up an entire world!

Ava and her two little friends put on their wellies and went out for a Nature Scavenger Hunt the other day. The three three-year-old friends had such a beautiful time. They discovered that throwing up autumn leaves is wonderful and that it is fun to gather nuts, leaves and other great finds. That you can find caterpillars and beetles when you search between the leaves! And fairytale-like mushrooms.

It's easy to focus on the big things in life, and sometimes, we tend to forget about the little things... Small and simple experiences can make the biggest memories. Maybe this weekend, you can take your little things outside for your own Nature Scavenger Hunt.

This cute image by Sara Musch will get you going! And when you're home (and possibly drinking hot chocolate), it can be coloured in as well.

Happy Weekend!
