Reading about acorns has been the highlight of our week. I think it's all very interesting because, the kids learned that it takes a very VERY long time for an oak tree to grow. Of course, the term "a long time" is relative when you are talking to young kids anyway.
In addition, (so far) we have not seen any acorns on our nature walks, therefore, the children have never held one in their hands.
With no acorns in sigh - we made our own tree and coloured acorns!
