An unexpected visitor

And bye-bye.

We built a house

The Raspberry Villa was a project for first learning how to build a real house. We think the good fairy will give it finally to the birds in the garden at winter time and go to live in some tree.

Notice: this is no paint but burning technique. We hope it is more durable.

Sometimes there is need to adjust a nail.

Forest candle holder

A try to save some birds

Since this happened we were visited many times on the unfortunate way from forest birds which didn’t notice our panorama windows or couldn’t stop and change their flight properly. This was our try to do something about it on the creative way:

Birds business

It’s spring, the birds are busy, so were we:

The cat, a presentation file

The cat, eyes and ears, a presentation in German learning.

Dear deer – der Hirsch

An exercise in German – living in the woods, making a poster about the deer. Working with various paper materials and information forms. Cross-points of learning German, biology (and also some Antient Greek because of the natural question what does this word mean exactly: βίος means life), geography (γεωγραφία – Earth description), art and liest but not last – a lot of fun.
Here we are:

Spring readings

When everything matches just everything matches at all!

Happy Birthday on the suggestological way

So, it was a spring poem from a german poet and naturalist written for about 120 years now.
How do you learn it by heart? Just easy: on a suggestological way. You listen to the recitation: in the combimnation life and as a recording, with different voices, and you do at the same time some brooches to give to your teachers away (for example). The results: unexpected beautiful as you can see! Bonus: you learn many things also about the author because it seems interesting to you.
Today was the birthday of an interesting lady, a living history of the suggestology. What a better reason to show all this beauty!
Happy Birthday, Angelina Karaslavova!

Frühling

Hoch oben von dem Eichenast
Eine bunte Meise läutet
Ein frohes Lied, ein helles Lied,
Ich weiß auch, was es bedeutet.

Es schmilzt der Schnee, es kommt das Gras,
Die Blumen werden blühen;
Es wird die ganze weite Welt
In Frühlingsfarben glühen.

Die Meise läutet den Frühling ein,
Ich hab’ es schon lange vernommen;
Er ist zu mir bei Eis und Schnee
Mit Singen und Klingen gekommen.

(Erstdruck 1901)

Hermann Löns
(1866 – 1914), deutscher Journalist, Schriftsteller, Naturforscher, Tierschilderer, Heide- und Liederdichter
