The lazy days of the 365 Day Nature Play Challenge when we do nothing but watch the clouds and see what they have to tell us.
276 – Making stories in the clouds
Monday 31 March. Sunny. 16°C
We have big plans to go to the beach later but on the way to school B finds the perfect challenge. The sky is blue with little wispy clouds. She’s watching a plane going past them and says it’s looks like it’s blown out a huge white cloud. Then she thinks the little clouds look like flowers. I think they look like the white streaks they have in cartoons sometimes when something moves quickly. Coming back, they’re thinner and less pronounced. B says it’s like waves on the beach coming in and out. One looks just like a giant feather. It’s like a giant storybook.
212 – More cloud stories
Sunday 1 June. Cloudy with sun patches 18°C
We’re surprisingly tired and low energy today after the big ‘no electronics’ day yesterday. Too lazy for a bit adventure we find ourselves cloud watching again. There’s a big bank of cloud lowering itself towards some little fluffy ones. I think the little fluffy ones look just like a big gorilla walking. B disagrees. She sees a witch, with a pet dragon, meeting a unicorn.
