“It is spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart.”
Spring is here, and with it comes the perfect opportunity to step outside and embrace the adventures waiting at every corner! There’s a fresh energy in the air—a call to explore, to discover, and to let our curiosity lead the way. As the world awakens and nature begins to bloom, I’m reminded that every season brings its own unique magic. And this spring, I’m diving in with an open heart and mind.
In this month’s Collector’s Club box, I’ve packed everything you need to embark on your own springtime adventure. Whether you're hiking through a blooming meadow or simply exploring your own backyard, there’s so much to discover.
A Field Guide to Outdoor Exploration
One of the highlights this month is the Scout’s Field Guide to Outdoor Adventure, brimming with spring-inspired activities. Whether you need a companion for your nature walk, tracking animal footprints, or moon gazing, this guide has some fun and hands-on projects to fuel your curiosity. Each activity is an invitation to slow down, look closely, and discover the world in new and exciting ways.

A Doll Ready for Adventure
Meet Scout, a doll that’s ready to explore! With her backpack and a map peeking out, she’s all set for her next adventure—and she’s taking you along with her. Let her spark your imagination as you dream up new journeys, from forest hikes to backyard quests. Wherever your curiosity takes you, she’ll be there to remind you that adventure is always just around the corner.

The Magic of Transformation
To make your spring adventure even more magical, I’ve included a handmade chrysalis with a delicate butterfly charm inside. Just like the caterpillar transforming into a butterfly, spring is a time for growth, renewal, and new beginnings. Don’t forget to open your chrysalis (don’t worry, it’s not real!) and let it remind you that each day holds the possibility of transformation—whether it’s in nature or in your own journey.

Ready to Explore?
So, what’s waiting for you this season? Step outside, follow the signs of spring, and let your curiosity lead the way. The world is full of adventures—big and small—and spring is the perfect time to start discovering them.
I can’t wait to hear about all the amazing adventures you’ll have this spring. So grab your field guide, pack your bag, and let’s go—because the adventure of spring is calling!
P.S. I also wanted to recommend a book this month from my read every day project! If you’re looking for a beautifully illustrated book to inspire curiosity and growth this spring, I highly recommend Becoming Charley by Kelly DiPucchio. This delightful story follows a young caterpillar named Charley as they explore the world around them, embracing the journey of self-discovery and transformation. Perfect for sparking wonder and reflection, it’s a gentle reminder that we all have our own unique path to take.
