Now take your cut out with you on a walk using it as a viewfinder to “dress” your person. See how many different patterns you can view through the cutout. Seeing nature in this new way helps kids notice the good all around them. When we intentionally focus on the good, we increase our feelings of happiness and well-being.
If you like, snap photos of each different pattern, create a collage and post it on social media to share with friends. Don’t forget to tag Mindful Littles!
Thanks to Shelly Smith, an outdoor educator at Tinkergarten for this fun activity!
