Let's slow down and enjoy some deep rest and rejuvenation this year, shall we? Just like our dear friends Martin & Sylvia in the "Day of Rest" collection. 🛋️ ✨

Martin and Sylvia’s Momma and Daddy both work and share the responsibilities of keeping a home. They like the balance between home and work, but they do regularly feel tired, overwhelmed, and too busy with all the details of their day-to-day life. When Momma’s assistant Amy gives her a book that could “benefit the whole family,” she is surprised and delighted that it’s all about the importance and practice of a full "Day of Rest." And thus begins a year-long project to build the perfect day of rest for their family.

Just like Martin & Sylvia in their ‘Arctic Explorers’ adventure, we turned our backyard into an Arctic cookout! ❄️🔥

With coats, mittens, a fire crackling, and simple eats like sausages and s’mores, winter became a cozy adventure!

Inspired by the original audio story "Evergreen Brushes" from the Martin & Sylvia's Nature School collection. These natural paintbrushes invite us outdoors (rain or snow!) to forage and collect just like Sylvia and Sofia do! We recommend collecting three or four types of evergreens to make these paintbrushes for different textures! 🌲🎨🖌️

Happy foraging and creating!

It's officially winter, we're in the thick of it now! And so we felt it only fitting to highlight our original Martin & Sylvia's Nature School collection — inspiring and inviting us to get outside and embrace all seasons (even the cold ones) in all their glory! ❄️

Every Thursday, Martin goes to the Goose-eye Wilderness School while Sylvia and her friend Sophia create a Nature Homeschool. From wildcraft cooking to outdoor games to building projects to tree identification, Nature School will be a year of unfolding learning and fun.

In the Martin & Sylvia original audio story "First Day," Martin and Sylvia celebrate First Day by entering a snow sculpture competition. Even when it’s bitter cold out, you can have your own snow sculpture contest indoors with a sweet treat at the end to make it extra special. ❄️🍊

Try our Sparkly Winter Snow Cones: with fresh clean snow (or crushed ice), some fruit juice and a dash of simple syrup, you'll have yourself a icy cool treat to celebrate this snowy season! Read the full blog post here: https://www.sparklestories.com/blog/post/sparkle-kitchen-winter-snow-cones/
