Seasonal craft implosions

This year-long project explores children’s relationships with nature through monthly activities from the book Året runt med Pettson och Findus (All year round with Pettson and Findus). Each of the suggested crafts and recipes will be realized by myself and family, in or nearby our home to situate engagement with local materials and ecologies. Additional friends and families will also be invited to participate. This project seeks to understand the ways in which nature investigations are oriented towards children, and the underlying values, temporalities, and relations that are foregrounded. This project is part of my Digital Futures postdoctoral research on Children and sustainability: Designing digital tools for collaborative survival.
