Squiggle and I made seed bombs, as a more unique way of planting the wild flower seeds we were sent from The Wildlife Trusts in our 30 Days Wild pack. It is a really simple, fun activity… and all you need is clay, soil and seeds! Firstly, get a small lump of clay and flatten it out. … Read more
Yesterday I watched a blue butterfly fluttering around my garden. I am not sure if it was a holly blue or common blue but it was very pretty! I didn’t capture a photo of it because I didn’t have my phone on me but I decided to take a few minutes to write about butterflies … Read more
