An Easter Basket for Your Naturalist

Do you have a child who loves to look for birds nests, collect rocks, dig in the dirt, or stop and pick every dandelion in sight to make bouquets or wishes? Or perhaps one who shoves their pockets full of twigs and sticks because they can't live without them? I do.

While this can make for some interesting discoveries when doing laundry, it is one of my favorite things about raising kids. I love that they are curious about everything and they have so much to discover and marvel at.

These Easter basket selections were picked with this idea in mind and are meant to create opportunities for kids to enjoy the exploration of the natural world around them.

What could be more appropriate for spring, when the natural world is waking up?
