Even in the cooler weather we are aiming to spend a minimum of three hours a day outdoors. We do this by exploring our backyard, our neighbourhood, our local park and forest areas and the nature reserve. Taking learning outdoors is important and learning in situ is important. There is no better place to learn about nature, about tree and flowers, about wind and rain, than outdoors. While I am very much in favour of free play and roaming around outdoors, it's nice to have a few tools and materials for the children to use too. Here are a few...

An experiment with product photography for a magazine style layout, playing on the Everyday Carry (EDC) phenomenon. This kit is intended for hiking and urban exploration. The contents of this kit were used to take this photo - for example, the red light in the background behind the bag is actually the smartphone, with the display showing a red screen. The primary light source is a flashlight, "painting" the bag over an 8 second exposure. The graphics were inspired by the movie Oblivion, and are meant to be evocative of a futuristic camera's viewfinder. The bag is a Maxpedition Jumbo S-Type Versipack. Not pictured: - pocket notebook - YN 560-III speedlite, RF-602 wireless trigger - Beike BK-555 traveller's tripod - Hoya PRO1digital ND filter - Coleman first aid tin - FX-HL10 Headlamp - paper towel
If traveling were free, you'd never see them again.
This post is a project I did with DailyBuzz Moms 9X9. I am so honored to be involved in the Fall into Autumn challenge! I become wistful when the autumn season arrives and the rest of the country seems to be busy picking apples, wearing sweaters and taking hayrides. Fall in Florida is a very subtle season; sometimes it seems as if we go straight from summer to winter in the blink of an eye. This year we started a tradition that I think we will carry with us into each season. We took a "Finding Fall" observational walk. With a simple twig journal, a camera, some squares of contact paper, tape, pencil and very good eyes, we tried to track down and record clues that fall was approaching. To make a twig journal, simply fold a small stack of paper in half, punch a few holes in the spine and run a rubber band down the inside. Poke the little rubber band ends out of the holes and loop them around a found twig, pencil or chopstick. We observed: -a very few leaves that had changed colors -acorns and other nuts dropping (to feed the small mammals) -beauty berry plants with ripened fruit (to feed all the migrating birds) -new birds at our neighborhood lake! it will be fun to see all the winter guests that arrive through out the rest of the year We also observed that the wet, cool weather is great mushroom weather. We traced some mushrooms and brought some back home to make spore prints. And it is starting to get dark earlier, so we are sometimes still outdoors at night and can see the bats emerge from chimneys and trees and we suspect that we might catch a glimpse of an owl swopping through the old live oaks in our neighborhood. I was amazed at all we noticed about this brief and nuanced season we often rush through. When we stopped and really looked and thought and wondered, we were able to read a previously unseen page in our natural landscape. This would be so great to do at the beginning of each season, and in any location. (we loved looking for squirrel teeth marks on the fallen nuts) What season might be overlooked in your corner of the world?
