FROM THE EDITOR
The first snowfall is glorious. We revel in the downy flakes, the possibilities of snowmen or tracking. But soon bundling up becomes a chore and the snowdrifts seem –well –cold! Then we’ll find any excuse to stay indoors.
Nature is so important for the well-being of children, and we cannot let the weather stand in our way. Nothing refreshes and reinvigorates like the great outdoors.
So here is inspiration to beat the winter blues! Enjoy it. Then don your scarf and mittens and lead the charge into the wintery world of nature!
