Cheekyshoes giveaway

We are excited to be hosting a giveaway for 3 pairs of Cheekyshoes. Recently I was sent a pair of Cheekyshoes to review and was delighted to find stylish, fun shoes that are simple, flat and very comfortable. Cheekyshoes come in a fabulous range of vibrant, pick-me-up colours. I chose Sparkling Orange but I love all the colours!



See the current Cheekyshoes range (there will be a new collection coming out in June to replace the existing ones) and read my Cheekyshoes review.

A homemade Nature Study kit and an I-Spy Wild Flowers giveaway

Inspired by a wonderful homemade Gather Bucket at maya*made, that I featured in my preparing for spring post, I decided to put together a Nature Study kit to take with us on our spring nature walks. I found an Origins fabric shopping bag to use and then collected things to put in it that we had around our house.



Our kit contains*
magnifying glass
binoculars
compass
plain paper exercise book
pencil
one large tin and one small tin
cardboard tub
two little jars
one large drawstring bag
three small drawstring bags
Birds of the British Isles picture cards
I-Spy Wild Flowers book
Nature Facts (Pockets) book
Discover wildlife booklet
booklets about bugs, beetles, flies, dragonflies, snails & slugs and grasshoppers, crickets, cockroaches & earwigs
*We added a ruler and a tape measure after I took these pictures.

Sunnyboy said he'd like to look for bugs so for our first nature walk with our new Nature Study kit we'll take a book on bugs and a bug spotter's chart (both came from a Bugs Activity Kit).



We also have some packs of Usborne Spotter's Cards to use on more nature walks.



All of our books and spotter's cards were bought secondhand from charity shops and we have a spare secondhand copy of this little vintage book, I-Spy Wild Flowers, so I'm having a giveaway. If you'd like to win a copy leave a comment on this post. Please mention in your comment that you'd like to enter the giveaway (and include a link to your blog) and I'll draw a winner at random on 3rd March.
This giveaway is now closed.



If you have a post about a nature study kit, spring nature walk, spring nature table or any post with a spring theme, we'd love you to link up at our All Year Round Blog Carnival: Spring, which is open for new links until May.



You can find lots more Nature Study ideas and resources on our Nature Study Pinterest board.
