The Nature Study Companion
Couldn't load pickup availability
There is something different that happens when a child brings their learning outside. The Nature Study Companion was created as a way to make space for days in the field, by the water, or in the garden.
Carefully gathered and designed to be used together:
- (1) wooden portable tabletop easel
- (1) set of Stockmar opaque watercolors
- (1) set of Stockmar Hexagonal OR Triangular Colored Pencils (set of 18)
Triangular pencils are especially helpful for younger children, guiding a comfortable grip and supporting early writing and drawing skills.
Hexagonal pencils are a classic shape, often preferred by older children who are used to drawing and like the flexibility to adjust their grip as they work.
If you’re unsure, triangular is a wonderful place to begin 🌿
- (1) Stockmar Drawing Pad (50 sheets)
- (1) Stockmar metal dual pencil sharpener
- (1) cow hair paintbrush, round tip #8
- (1) 100ml glass jar for water
- (1) 100% soft cotton cloth
- (1) printed prompt card for gentle guidance
Each piece was chosen for its simplicity, durability, and beauty.
Perfect for:
- Homeschool nature study
- Slow mornings outdoors
- Travel and day trips
- Seasonal observation and journaling
- A meaningful, lasting gift
Not for perfect drawings, but for noticing.
