Birdie hugs the Glimmer Tree when she meets it for the first time. How do you honor trees in real life? You decide, share an adventure with a friend, and grow in the Wisdom of the Arbor Lineage!
Grab a friend
Ask a friend who lives nearby to come with you to find your Glimmer Tree.
Pick a place and a tree
Go to a spot with cool trees and secretly choose a special one. Shhhhhh . . .Don’t tell your friend which one it is!
Make introductions
Blindfold your friend, spin her three times, then lead her to your special tree. Ask her to use all of her senses except sight (and maybe taste!) to get to know the tree.
Take a guess
Lead her back to your original spot and take off the blindfold. Can she guess which tree is your Glimmer Tree?
Celebrate!
You’ve found your Glimmer Tree and made the world a brighter place! Celebrate the tree any way you’d like – with a picnic, a song, or just a hug!

hey thanks so much greengirl. my dad just got some new trees today, but they’re still pretty small. one is a white pine, and the other is a red pinecone tree. he also bought some pussy willows with branches just perfectly thick to use as a kalis stick. i think my spirikin is a coyote. whats yours? how can you tell anyways? write back xoxoxoxoxox ~ momos ~

I have a Glimmer Tree I call Grandmother Willow! I think I hear her speak words of wisdom to me!
My Glimmer Tree is on my way to school. One day I saw a leaf suspended in mid-air and I looked more closely to see that it was attached by two fine spiderweb strands. The leaf has since fallen, but I often pause by that tree where the leaf was, and just remember that magical moment. You know, this website and Birdie’s Book totally inspires me, thank you so much.
i lovvvvvvvveeeeee your book birdie. it inspired me.i love these projects,and i do one every week! PLEASE RESPOND
