Mossy Children's Botanical Craft
One of my favorite children's authors and illustrators is Jan Brett, known for her richly detailed and beautifully crafted children's storybooks. Her works often draw on themes of nature, folklore, and cultural traditions, bringing stories to life with intricate illustrations that captivate even the youngest of readers. Since our children were very young, we've been collecting her storybooks. After first reading Mossy, I had the idea of turning this sweet tale into a craft, most suited for children ages two to six.

A Curated List of Children's Garden-Themed Stories
During our garden and botany homeschool unit, which was held every morning outside at our big table in the middle of our garden, we read the book, How Does My Garden Grow by Gerda Muller.

A Hygge Home
A hygge home. It’s so much more than just a hype word ever popular around the holiday season. To be completely honest, for me, it was a lifestyle I was mindfully trying to create for myself and my family before I’d ever even heard of the word. I thought it would be nice to share some of the subtleties that I believe give our home that cozy, calming comfy hygge feeling.
