Tree Cone Study
This week we are going to look at tree cones. Such a simple nature study that children love! Use the challenges listed below for ideas on getting started with your family's cone study.
There are a couple challenges you can use for this nature study:
Winter Wednesday - Tree Cones from 2009
Pine Cones - Autumn #9 from 2010

Printable Notebook Page - My Tree Cone Observations
Here is a simple notebook page to use with your challenge this week. Have some fun observing a tree cone and help your children make a record of their thoughts for their nature journal. I left the box large enough that you can adhere a photo of your cone if you don't want to sketch.
