A Month in Nature

Do you want to add nature, beauty, art and poetry to your children’s days? In the early years, children learn best by hands-on experience. Words mean little to those who have not yet experienced the sights, sounds, smells, and feelings those words represent. Read More about “Wonder-Filled Days in Nature”…

Picture Book Biographies of Famous Mathematicians

March 25, 2019

A while ago we checked out The Boy Who Loved Math from the library. It quickly became one of our favorite math picture books. I loved all the math incorporated into each picture. My son studied it over and over and read all the fine print in the back and said he wants one for his own. This led me on a search to find other great math picture book biographies. […]

Looking for something?

I told my daughter she might be able to find Swallowtail caterpillars on Queen Anne's lace. I didn't expect her to bring me this miniscule one. We're hoping it's some kind of Swallowtail, but we're open to any ideas. I guess we'll find out as it gets bigger.

The August nature study is uploaded. It's been over a year now since I've been offering digital nature subscriptions. The beauty of nature study is that it gets richer with each year that passes as you have more of a record, mental or written, of what is happening around you in the natural world. We've learned so much and are looking forward to another year of digging deeper.

We found our first Monarch butterfly egg!

Monarch eggs are slightly elongated and have tiny ridges. I wasn't quite convinced this was a Monarch egg, so we looked at it under the digital microscope and were able to see the tiny ridges. (Second photo)

We had our first meal of string beans from the garden yesterday! I'm making a note to plant more of the purple variety next year. Aren't they lovely? Most of them didn't make it out of the garden, thanks to my daughter who thought they were fun to eat.

We like fresh string beans fried with a bit of bacon fat and salt. What garden goodies are you enjoying?

The same God that brings beauty to a thistle can bring beauty to the hard places of your life. He brings beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and a garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. He will do exceedingly abundantly above what we ask, even in the hardest places.

"He hath made everything beautiful in His time."

I love how this liatris that my mom gave me in spring is doing.

Liatris are great for pollinators and according to the Plant for Pollinators website attract butterflies, including swallowtails, painted ladies, sulfurs, monarchs, and many more. They're also good for bees including miner bees, leaf-cutting bees, bumblebees, honey bees and carpenter bees. I saw some small bees and a moth (second photo) while taking the photos.

They're easy to grow, come back yearly, and are lovely to look at.
