February brings the rain,
Thaws the frozen lake again.

It’s Candlemas Week in Exploring Nature With Children
Happy exploring!
“August brings the sheaves of corn,
Then the harvest home is borne.”

“Hot July brings cooling showers,
Apricots and gillyflowers.”

Happy exploring on this the longest day of the year!
June brings tulips, lilies, roses,
Fills the children’s hand with posies.

Next week will be the Twelve Days of Christmas in Exploring Nature With Children
“Tweet of the Day has been entertaining early morning listeners to the Radio 4 schedule every day since 2013, but this Christmas we will delight in an avian offering of the well known song Twelve Days of Christmas.
On the first day of Christmas so the song goes, a true love sent a partridge in a pear tree. As actress Alison Steadman suggests as ground birds, partridges are not known for their amorous arboreal perching. Why a partridge in a tree could have many meanings, but given the song is of possible French origin, the French or red-legged partridge seems an ideal candidate as sitter in a pear tree.”
To my dear American friends, wishing you a peaceful Thanksgiving.
