<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\nSo on a walk the other day, I had the idea to collect as many colours as we could find in nature. My parents were visiting from Ontario, so we had some berry picking pails along. My kids (age 5 and 6) have recently become avid bikers so they had zoomed off ahead, leaving me to do most of the sourcing for this project.<\/p>\n
My daughter was nearby and helped my mom and I arrange this colour wheel. I couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t believe the colours on this unsuspecting bike trail, which to me seemed kind of boring (flat, not in the forest, etc.).<\/p>\n
My son finally came back and was dismayed to find that we had made this without him. Luckily, I was able to think of something he could contribute: the stick frame.<\/p>\n
People sometimes comment on how many creative things we do like this, wondering how we find the time. Our family really cherishes trying to live a fairly simple life, to get outside rather than doing other things like cleaning or shopping on weekends, and just being observant in nature. As I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve shared before, sometimes I am known for doing odd things like picking up pods<\/a> and other scavenging<\/a>, which I find relaxing.<\/p>\n Give this a try \u00e2\u20ac\u201c see what you can find! I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d love to see others\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 nature creations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
