Autumn is a favorite time for us when it comes to creating nature tables. Going on nature hunts for rose hips, fallen leaves, oak balls, dried herbs, and acorns is part of the fun! We read books about the harvest, gnomes, and the changing of the seasons as the root children begin their descent into the Earth.
We celebrate Michaelmas and bring out pumpkins in anticipation of Halloween.
Rainbow summer colors, green leaves, and ocean waves disappear as hues of orange, gold, eggplant and brown appear. A time to celebrate the cooler weather and a time of rest and contemplation.
