Look, count, talk

A little garden discovery.

Enjoy a short walk together, or bring a few leaves and vegetables to the table.

Four things to notice

  1. Find a color. Name a color, then look for something that matches it.
  2. Spot a shape. Look for something round, long, pointed, or heart-shaped.
  3. Count a small group. Count leaves, stones, or vegetables together. Point to each one as you count.
  4. Tell the story. Draw or describe one thing you noticed. What would you like to find next time?

Stay together outdoors. Look without picking or tasting unfamiliar plants.

Keep the discovery going.
