Nature is one of the most important habitats in which children should be able to move and learn well. The book is pedagogically and psychologically sound and very competently prepared by the author and invites you to discover a new language in nature in a playful way. Many classic questions for parents, such as “How is a rainbow created,” or “Why do we need bees?” , are answered in this book in a child-friendly way in both German and English. Craft instructions, flashcards and recipes make nature come alive and make learning an exciting adventure. You learn a lot of interesting things both linguistically and about nature. The extremely successful illustration of the book completes this overall work of art. A book that not only invites you to read and read aloud, but also as a reference work for high-quality leisure activities with children. If you are in the mood for an adventurous and playful language trip through nature, whether big or small, I can only highly recommend this book. I hope that the author will provide more books of this kind.
Für natur- und sprach interessierte Eltern und jüngere Kinder ein unbedingtes Muss!

Die Natur ist eines der wichtigsten Lebensräume in denen Kinder sich bewegen sollten und dabei gut lernen können. Das Buch ist pädagogisch und psychologisch fundiert und sehr kompetent von der Autorin aufbereitet und lädt spielerisch zum Entdecken einer neuen Sprache in der Natur ein. Viele klassische Fragen an Eltern, wie “Wie entsteht ein Regenbogen,” oder “Warum brauchen wir Bienen?”, werden in diesem Buch sowohl auf Deutsch als auch auf Englisch kindgerecht beantwortet. Bastelanleitungen, Lernkarten und Rezepte machen die Natur erlebbar und das Lernen zum spannenden Abenteuer. Man erfährt sowohl sprachlich als auch über die Natur viel Interessantes. Die ausgesprochen gelungene Illustration des Buches komplettiert dieses Gesamtkunstwerk. Ein Buch, das nicht nur zum Lesen und Vorlesen, sondern auch als Nachschlagewerk für qualitativ hochwertige Freizeitgestaltung mit den Kindern einlädt. Wenn man Lust auf eine abenteuerliche und spielerische Sprachreise durch die Natur hat, egal ob Groß oder Klein, kann ich dieses Buch nur wärmstens empfehlen. Ich hoffe, dass die Autorin noch für weitere Bücher dieser Art sorgen wird.

#WhinnyWednesday Working together—mum, daughter #WhinnyWednesday

Working together—mum, daughter, and pony—with kindness, curiosity, and a lot of languages.

Emily and Gypsy are just starting out on their clicker/horse agility journey, and this short 'training' session includes so much:

 Clear communication (sometimes in English, sometimes in German -got to get that bilingual learning in 😉)

 Learning side by side.

 Building trust through positive reinforcement—for both humans and horses.

We’re definitely not aiming for perfection, but more of a connection. One cue, one giggle, one “brav" at a time.

Language learning isn’t just for schoolbooks!

#multilingualmonday 5 Phrases for Calmness – Fo #multilingualmonday

5 Phrases for Calmness – For humans and ponies.

A calm connection can be communicated—gently, consistently and bilingually.

Here are 5 phrases I say softly in both English and German, to build trust and slow the moment down—for both of us, as I get stressed to sometimes!!

breathe – atmen

It's okay – Alles gut

Slow down – Langsam

I'm here /I'm with you – Ich bin bei dir

Good boy/girl – brave junge/ braves mädchen

Don't forget language also creates a type of energy,  that can be conveyed to both people and ponies😊

Which phrase speaks to you most today?
