I highly recommend them to everyone. These are a collection of old play ideas, outdoor discoveries, woodsy crafts, and even some recipes that help us meditate on the forgotten luxury of simple living. Many of the activities will take you through the types of outdoor play that you may have forgotten since becoming a curmudgeonly old adult. Lovejoy makes Fairies live again and Mudpies seem like culinary masterpieces. There are various suggestions about how to create a cozy, child-friendly oasis within your home - storage, keeping dress in a large trunk, keeping a large basket full of books in each room, bringing nature indoors. The illustrations throughout these books are so charming watercolor sketches reminiscent of Beatrix Potter, which is perfectly suited to the contents of the books.

Do not bother

There is almost zero in this book that would not know some one granny's age. If you lived all your life in a city, you might appreciate some of the tips, I suppose. Cannot recommend. Not a new bit of info for my use. I felt that I had wasted my money.

GREEN things to do

This has lots of ideas, but be aware that it is primarily about fun with nature, though it does cover old-fashioned ideas I have forgotten like playing with pipe cleaners!

great book to help create precious memories with little ones.

Lots of excellent activities and ideas to promote quality time with my grandchildren. Sharon Lovejoy reminds me how to think again like a child and see the world through their eyes, sadly something long forgotten for me.
