Good Friday Nature Walk Printable Pack

Good Friday Nature Walk Printable Pack

On Good Friday, weather permitting, I will meet our homeschool Nature Club at a nearby state park for an Easter-themed nature walk. I have instructed all the participants to bring a clipboard or other hard writing surface and a few colored pencils.


(This post contains affiliate links. Please see my disclosure policy for full details.)

I will gather everyone in the grass to read the first few pages of The First Easter by Carol Heyer.

I'll hand everyone a copy of the Good Friday Nature Walk notebooking page, and lead them on a walk through the woods. We will look for a large leaf, complete the first box on the page, and read the next few pages of the book. This read-walk-draw cycle will continue until we've completed the entire notebook page. (Any Resurrection-themed picture book will work just fine for this notebooking activity.)

I pray that God will use this time together in His creation to point our hearts toward the cross and the gift of new life given by His risen Son!

Want to take your own Good Friday nature walk? Be sure to grab my printable pack!

    Hi Jamie, hopping over from Pinterest to pin this lovely idea & wondered if you would like to receive a complementary copy of my new book (to be published by Zonderkidz, in the fall of 2016). Christmas Love Letters from God is similar to my first children's book, Maybe you can take a peek here & contact me if this is soothing you might like? http://www.amazon.com/Love-Letters-God-Bible-Stories/dp/0310733847/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1407601495&sr=1-1&keywords=love+letters+from+god+nellist
    (Sorry if I shouldn't post this here, but I couldn't find a contact form on your site)

    Jamie--I love the idea of the nature walk. Would it be okay to print these and share them with the children at my church? I know this is your own creative work and do not mean to overstep by asking!

    Can I have permission to share the nature walk PDF with my students during this pandemic? I think it would be good for them to get out! I'll give you credit.

    I've had this for a while, but found it as I was going through files. Just shared the link on my FB page. Can't wait to use it with my kiddos.
