In a world that moves rapidly and offers so many distractions, the simple act of slowing down and paying attention is one of the greatest gifts we can give our children
Courtney and Michael Adamo are parents of five (and the authors of The Family Home) and in their second book, At Home in Every Season, they’re focused on getting back to nature and teaching kids how to connect with the cycles and rhythms of the seasons through play, crafts and activities that can be done as a family
Each season brings its own gifts – spring’s budding blossoms and fresh beginnings, summer’s warmth and golden light, autumn’s crisp air and vibrant colours, and winter’s quiet stillness
By celebrating these changes, we teach our children to tune in to the subtleties around them
From going on a nature walk and making flower crowns to creating a seashell mobile and planting seedlings, At Home in Every Season is a beautiful celebration of the seasons and a practical guide for entertaining kids without the need for screens
