On Saturday we welcomed a new season- Spring! This week we will be focusing on spring things- wind, rain, flowers and birds. Hopefully we will be able to spend some more time outdoors too but the forecast is looking a little wetter and chillier than last week.
Books
We will be reading a bunch of books about Spring and all that this new season brings.

Rain is in the forecast for this week and it couldn't be spring without it. We will be curling up on the couch to read books about rain while listening to it pitter patter on the windows.(Image Sources- Goodreads)
