I loved this one. I think we're going to become better explorers.

I don't think Kari Smith ever uses the word "mindfulness," but she manages to turn it into a game. When it was serious and important, I couldn't do it, but I've been being mindful all day, and although I've done nothing but play with my son and tidy up a bit, it's been the best day ever.

Awesome, inspiring book! Full of creative ideas to encourage children (and adults!) to observe, explore, notice the simple things in life. Highly recommend.

While I sort of felt like I was cheating by not actually completing the "explorations" in this book (or even writing in it, because I got it out of the library), I really liked the idea of getting out and paying attention to/collecting the everyday in your life. Definitely the type of book that I'd like to eventually get & work through, but for now I'm content to be inspired in a more general way. Fun stuff to give you a little creative kickstart and/or perspective refresher.
