Autumn Adventure ~Acorn Gathering~

I sat down on the playground watching the children
when I looked up
and saw something so simple yet so magical
the wind was blowing these leaves
and they were all dancing so gently
I became enchanted ~*~
like I was being whisp away to a magical realm of being.




~Treasures Gathered and taken home~



The children immediately gathered the acorn children and animals
and started playing.It was a really beautiful moment,
as I listened to their play
and watched them create a world with them.
It is so different to going to a shop and buying a new toy to play with.
Somehow it just expands a natural beauty which really enlivens
the children`s spirits.

Brown Squirrel ,brown squirrel
swish your bushy tail
wrinkle up your little nose
hold a nut between your toes
brown squirrel, brown squirrel


Its Autumn Time
Its Autumn Time
leaves are falling down
the wind is blowing around
the squirrels have come out to play

Oak Tree







The fresh brown earth
had a little secret inside
a acorn lay deep asleep
oneday a green shoot appeared
and grew and grew and grew......
it turned into a Oak tree
and grew taller and wider each day
until it was a big tall tree....................
Then one day it started to become colder
and the leaves changed colour and fell to the ground
and so did the baby acorns......................................

<<<<<<A Wise Old Owl sat in an oak>>>>>>>
The more he heard, the less he spoke
The less he spoke, the more he heard
Why aren`t we all like that wise old bird?

Owl CircleTime songs and poetry

brown owl, brown owl
whooo, whoo, whoo
brown owl, brown owl
whoo, whoo, whoo
we see you sitting in a tree
and when he looks at you
he flaps his wings
and says whoo whoo whoooo



When it is dark outside
and the moon is full
lets walk outside
into the darkness and silence
and see if we can find a owl
whooooo, whoooo whooo

Owl Painting

One night the moon was full
shinning in the night sky
tree tops swaying in the silence of the darkness
when all of a sudden
something moved from within the shadows of the trees
it was an owl flying across the night sky................











There was once an old old tree
with branches reaching all the way to the sky
a golden brown colour surrounded by the night sky
and in the tree was a hole
looking closely
I found a owl looking out at me.........................
whooo whooooo whooooo
