Learning with Nature (Love to Learn Linky #2)

Learning with Nature
 
 I would like to thank all the wonderful and talented bloggers who linked up last week to the debut of Love to Learn Linky! I can't wait to see all your new posts this week!
 
In today's modern world, it is easy to forget the importance of connecting with nature on a regular basis. Research shows that children who have daily contact with nature benefit in many ways: physically, emotionally, socially and intellectually.
 
Even kids who are indoors most of the day can still benefit from incorporating natural materials into their learning activities. Here are some great ideas to inspire you!

Now it's time for some more links! I hope you'll join me and a couple of friends for a brand new linky party!
 
Bloggers, link up your posts every Thursday and watch as we round them up and share them all over the place.
 
Almost anything goes, we're just hoping your activities teach kids (or us!) something. (science, art, cooking, behavior, crafting, parenting, etc...)
 
The Love to Learn Linky is Hosted by:
