Fun with Fruits and Nuts
This month we have began our study of fruits and nuts during our schooling time. We started off by heading outside for a fruits and nuts hunt in our backyard. It didn’t take long for us to begin finding some. We have a several large Black Walnut trees and lots of Hickory trees as well that provided us with samples of nuts to take and we also found bushes with wild berries growing on them.

We finished off our day by reading one of our absolute favorite books, The Hickory Chair!
I’ve been amazed at how much fun we’ve had learning about fruits and nuts so far! You can find suggestions to do all of the above things plus lots more in the Fruits and Nuts themed study.
