Please read my disclosure statement for more information. I received access to the Chalk Pastels Forest Nature Video Art Lessons at no cost in exchange for a review.  A positive review was not required.

I want to nurture my children’s passions and interests. When they became obsessed with nature I made sure we did the following:

  • nature hikes and nature exploration
  • read loads of nature books
  • watch nature documentaries
  • keep a nature table
  • play nature games

Plus, Nana walks them through the artwork step-by-step!

You’re probably wondering who “Nana” is? “Nana” is the chalk pastel teacher and master artists in the nature videos! My kiddos adore her. She is such a lovely lady and always reminds the children that they “ARE an Artist!”

Forest Nature Study Helps Grow a Love of Art and Nature

The kids had such fun making the Red-Eyed Tree Frogs with the Chalk Pastel Forest Nature Video Art Lessons! Afterward, we read up on Amphibians in our Animalium book. We even did a Frog Unit Study!

We watched a documentary on snails and caught some at a nearby stream. My son even caught a baby rat snake in the backyard and brought it up to the house for observation before releasing it back into the woods. Later he found the mama rat snakes skin!

Gah, boys, and snakes!
