ABOUT NATURE JOURNALS
Our appreciation of the world around us grows when we pay close attention to small details. Like an
ant carrying a chip of wood bigger than its own body. Or a lilac blossom about to burst open. Or a
songbird lofting a tune from up in a tree top. Nature journals help us focus on our surroundings and
record our observations.
What does a nature journal usually include? A lot of people like to sketch in their journals, learning
the art of quick drawing from nature. But it can also contain notes, photographs, poetry, pressed
flowers and other nature finds like feathers, or questions about nature. In the end, a nature journal
serves as both unique art and science practice.
While anyone can start a nature journal simply by picking an empty sketchbook or notebook, this
nature journal template is an introduction to nature journaling for children. It gives them prompts
and tasks to complete. With only ten pages, they will be able to fill it in a day or two. If they enjoy the
experience, afterwards they will be able to start another nature journal from scratch.
HOW TO FILL THE JOURNAL
• Look closely and draw. Pay attention to colour, form, and texture.
• Label the drawings. Use the names of species and parts when appropriate.
• Write down any questions you have and look the answers up later.
• Add the date and the place, noting where the drawing or the observation was made.
HOW TO USE THE TEMPLATE
Take three pieces of paper. Use cardstock to avoid seeing what is printed on the backsides of the
pages.
First, print pages that are marked “1 & 10”, “3 & 8” and “5 & 6”. Next, you’ll be feeding the same
pages back into the printer and printing on the other side of them.
The cover goes on the back of the page “1 & 10”.
The page “2 & 9” goes on the back of the page “3 & 8”.
The page “4 & 7” goes on the back of the page “5 & 6”.
After all the pages are printed, stack them together and fold them in the middle. You will get a book
of 10 pages! Punch holes and thread a ribbon to bind them together.
