By working with materials found in nature—leaves, stones, flowers, branches, and more—families learn to appreciate the beauty and diversity of their environment while creating sustainable art projects.
These activities teach environmental stewardship, encourage observation skills, and help children understand natural cycles and seasons. Nature crafts are inherently sustainable, using materials that are renewable and biodegradable. The process of collecting materials becomes an adventure, and working with natural elements teaches respect for the environment.
