Classroom curiosity shelf
A nature table is a display surface, typically in a classroom or home, where natural objects are arranged for observation and study.
Children collect items like leaves, acorns, feathers, and stones to place on the table, often rotating with the seasons: The children added pinecones and dried leaves to the autumn nature table.
