This season has been the start of a Bible journal, science journal, and nature journal at our house - so I'm thinking we'll get to art at some point... :) though art seems to permeate the others, too.Mozi Esmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078786257885681829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-72717262194538041042012-05-14T20:36:20.903-07:002012-05-14T20:36:20.903-07:00We have never taken a notebook out with us or kept...We have never taken a notebook out with us or kept a separate nature journal.

It'd be nice to have a section for drawings without lines going through... :)<br /><br />Christina - I've seen a lot of nature journal entries that get put together after the fact - e.g. dried flowers taped into the journal, photo journal pages, specimens brought home and drawn after the fact, etc. Personally, there's something about pen in hand and sunshine on shoulders that makes me slow down and pay attention to little things? I guess it depends on your kiddos - and your climate... :)<br /><br />jk - looking forward to the garden drawing!Mozi Esmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16078786257885681829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-12195539635280926952012-05-14T19:20:34.614-07:002012-05-14T19:20:34.614-07:00We do a lot of writing around here - have not done...We do a lot of writing around here - have not done a nature journal, per se, but lots and lots of writing - I love this idea to add into the mix. My daughter, Esme, did the most beautiful drawing plan of our perennial gardens around our house that I will scan and share on my blog at some point. It was much prettier than my sketch/plans for the same garden beds!jkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888111428733511377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-66109780580891169612012-05-14T19:06:47.447-07:002012-05-14T19:06:47.447-07:00Hmmm...something to think about.

Do you think that there is much to be gained by taking notebooks out into the field?Christina A.http://www.blueskiesacademy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562197752166850400.post-74987012661132659362012-05-14T10:43:34.353-07:002012-05-14T10:43:34.353-07:00OOOOOOh, I love the dried flower binder cover.

I am going to give that one a try with my girls for our nature notebooking pages notebook.<br /><br />For our regular "out in the woods" notebooking, we use the primary composition books that have blank space for drawings. My littles are ages 3-8 and it works well for all of them.<br /><br />Have a blessed week.
