As we experience cooler weather, dying vegetation and the need to cocoon ourselves in warmer garments, it’s an ideal time to bring awareness to your child of the cyclic nature of the seasons. Talking about the change of season provides your child with a subtle inner picture of the environment of which they are a part, strengthening their connection to the natural world and the rhythms that exist within us and around us. So often we stumble through the every day of chores and rushing from school to work to home to activities without stopping to take in the stillness of nature or the changes occurring in our immediate environment.
