Inside: Looking for some fun toddler spring activities? Here are over 15 inviting activities that will bring nature into your home or classroom!

Spring is one of the best times to bring nature into the home or classroom.

Adding fresh flowers (or fake for something that lasts longer!) to the play-dough table or sensory bin adds a fresh, colorful element.

When searching through spring activities on the internet, I noticed that most of them focus on art elements that are a bit too complicated for young toddlers’ little hands.

These spring activities are specifically selected for toddlers, for hands-on activities that they can enjoy at their skill level.
