Hosted by Maggy Woodley, author and creator of the craft blog (and YouTube channel) Red Ted Art, the latest episode of Bringing Nature Home provides a guide to using nature within crafting, both inside the home and while out and about in the Kentish countryside.
Maggy’s easy-to-follow tutorials guide through activities that appeal to all age groups, from creating fairy houses and leaf print art, to photography and collages, inspiring the next generation of crafters.
Spending time in nature has shown to have real benefits to children of all ages[1]. Outdoor play fosters children’s intellectual, emotional, social and physical development, allowing them to experience an ever-changing and free-flowing environment that stimulates all the senses. It also offers ‘secret learning opportunities’, as Maggy identifies within the podcast, teaching them problem solving and creative thinking – with a touch of mathematics.
