in Nature - Post Comment
Today while out walking my kids and I found that we have wild strawberries all around here. There are some in our front yard, and tons all around the vacant property that's next to us - even lots by the road. I enjoyed looking up info about Wild Strawberries on the web. I found out a little more about their growing season and what to expect from them.
We also spent some time drawing the wild strawberry flower that we found along with the leaves of a plant. We've been doing some nature journaling this year so it was good to find a nice, fairly simple thing for us to draw. I've even taken up doing the journaling and drawing with them which has been a lot of fun! I've found that the best way to get them to do it is to start doing it myself. As they watch me doing it, they're much more willing to jump in and do it with me! Anyways, I'm hoping that I'll be able to eat some of the fruit and that the animals won't get it all first!
