A ready made seasonal moment
Some weeks, the nature walk doesn't happen. The activity you saved gets forgotten and suddenly it is teatime again.
The Little Sprouts Letter gives you something thoughtful to open and enjoy without having to search for ideas or plan everything beforehand. Read the story together, head outside with the activity or make the recipe when it suits your family.
There is no timetable to follow and no garden is needed.
This month: The Magic of Samhain
October's Letter follows one of the most magical moments in the Irish year. As the nights grow longer and the world outside begins to feel wilder and older, children will discover an ancient Irish story, explore the season through their senses and make something to welcome the darker evenings.
Inside the October Letter:
๐ A personalised seasonal letter introducing October's theme of Samhain and the magic of the season
๐ An original Irish folklore story
๐ A hands on seasonal activity to explore the October world outside
๐ณ A beautifully illustrated child-friendly recipe using something from the autumn season
๐ October nature prompts to help children notice the darkening evenings, fallen leaves and wild October skies
โจ Two illustrated October keepsakes to collect
Everything is printed in full colour and arrives together in a bright green letterbox friendly envelope.
Rooted in Irish nature and folklore
Each monthly Letter explores a new moment in the Irish seasonal year through an original story, a hands-on activity and something simple to make or taste together.
Created for children aged 3 to 9 by a solo Irish founder who grew up with her hands in the soil and her head full of old stories.
Whether your family lives in Ireland or further away, the Little Sprouts Letter offers children a gentle connection to Irish stories, seasons and the natural world.
