While I follow my children’s lead when we’re planning their learning projects, we also closely follow the rhythm of the year with our days, and I know many of you are the same in your homes and classrooms. So I thought I would gather together ideas from the NurtureStore archive that fit just right with the months of the year. Some of the activities match what’s happening in the natural world, some are linked to festivals we’re celebrating, and some just seem to fit the mood of the month.I’m starting my seasonal activity plans for winter with a collection of things to do in January.
