Berries: I like painting red ones, they are the most popular in BC I think, Rose Hips, Kinnikinnick, Huckleberry or even Salmon Berry. Though there are tons of others which prompts the use of language skills. Why are they red? Why are they that shape? What animals do you think eat these berries? And so much more! 🫐

Snail: if you know me you know I love a good snail. Sometimes a hard one to find. If taken to the forest as a search and find prompt this could spark a lot of discussion and observation as to where a snail would live.

Squirrel: Our ever adorable squirrel. The American Red Squirrel or Douglas Squirrel are our native species, that pesky grey squirrel is invasive! I kinda blend the two native ones together for this one in the hopes to bring attention to what you may see out of urban centers.

Bee: For this custom order i was told the little one that was having this gifted to loved bees so I went bug and bold! Normally I do a bit of a subdued bee for my regular scavenger hunts but I thought why not celebrate this beautiful insect as much as her new owner would.

Fish: Not a regular in my scavenger hunts but the family loves fishing and I used my Beam Paints to add the shimmer of the rainbow trout. I really love this and I love using my beam paints to add a little bit of natural sparkle when I can.

In every early learning environment emotions are a staple of the day. Whether navigating, identifying or talking in depth about our emotions it plays an integral part of a young child's learning.

Order your set of 10 today at www.forestlearningtools.net

You can use our emotion rounds to identify and learn about different emotions and how they make us feel. Adding them to loose parts is a wonderful way to bring tactical imagery to your child's learning.

Emotions can be a great way to see how the colours make us feel as well. Painted in an array of the rainbow it is a colourful way to link emotions to the heat, warmth or coolness of how our emotions make us feel.

More loose part play linked to books are a great way to continue your language and literacy journey with littles. Replay the story or creating your own allows for endless possibilities.

Happy a feeling of simply belonging and doing what we live to do. Yellow brings the warmth into our happy feeling.

Love is something very complex with an overwhelming sense of wanting to be with or care for something that brings us joy. Each round is hand painted on wood from the forest.

Angry can happen in a flash of heat and chaos. This marks the volatility of how anger makes us feel.
These sets of emotions come together to create a rainbow of emotions to learn about in any childhood setting.
