Wildflowers

Most people believe that spring is the only season for wildflowers.  However, wildflowers are out and about through the year! They may not be as thick, or as prolific as in spring, but they do exist.

Try taking your child on a spring wildflower tour that’s recommended by your local Chamber of Commerce.  These trips generally take an hour or less and are something that your child will never forget.

If you find a beautiful patch laced with vibrant color, plop your child in the middle and snap a few shots.  This also makes a great photo for a homemade calendar – but that of course, is an entirely different project!

Make a Tin-Can Telephone

You’ll need 2 empty tin cans with one side cut out smooth, and some long string.  

Amazingly enough, this apparatus really works!  Carefully stick a hole in the end of each can.  Attach the string.  Talk into the can, then when your child talks, hold the can to your ear to listen.

See how far the sound travels by increasing the distance between you and your child.  See what happens if you run your ‘telephone’ around a corner.
