Potion Making

Nature Play Activity for Preschool Age and Older

Did you know plants have magical healing properties? We use plants for important things like medicine, textiles, and paper. It's also been rumored that potions made from plants can give us superpowers!

Do you want to be able to run speedy quick? Do you want to be able to read minds? Come up with your own recipes for your dream superpowers using ingredients you find outside!

To get you started, here are a handful of our coveted potion recipes. We like to print and laminate these, so potion recipes are always close at hand in nature.
