Here’s what you’ll need:

Here’s what you do:
- Go for a walk with your child on a beautiful spring day and collect unique rocks, leaves, etc.
- Take time afterward to admire your child’s collection with him.
- In a notebook or journal, keep a list of all of the special things you admired with your child. Don’t forget to write the dates for all of your entries.
- Reread this journal to your child from time to time. (This will be a special gift to give him later in life.)
