A 100% mulberry silk seasonal playsilk for birthdays, nature tables, storytelling, dress-up, and year-round imaginative play.
Product Description
Mark the changing seasons, celebrate another trip around the sun, and give little imaginations a beautiful place to begin with the Sarah’s Silks Around the Year Mini Playsilk.
Made from heavyweight 100% pure mulberry silk, this 21" × 21" playsilk features artwork inspired by the seasons of the year. Families can bring it out for birthdays, seasonal celebrations, nature tables, storytelling, or simply let children decide what it becomes next.
One day it can be part of a special birthday tradition. The next, it might become a cape, a landscape for small-world play, a seasonal backdrop, or a starting point for an entirely new story. Its simple, open-ended design makes it easy to weave into the everyday rhythms of family life.
Why Parents Love It
- Celebrates the seasons: Seasonal artwork offers a beautiful way to notice and mark changes throughout the year.
- Made for meaningful traditions: Use it for birthdays, seasonal displays, nature tables, and special family celebrations.
- Open-ended after the celebration: The playsilk can continue into dress-up, storytelling, small-world play, and imaginative adventures.
- Made from pure silk: Crafted from heavyweight 100% pure mulberry silk.
- Easy to bring into everyday play: Its compact 21" × 21" size works well for play spaces, seasonal tables, and family routines.
Built for Real Outdoor Use
The Around the Year Mini Playsilk fits naturally into a childhood shaped by the seasons. Add it to a nature table after a leaf-collecting walk, use it as a backdrop for treasures gathered outside, or bring it into storytelling inspired by what children are noticing in the world around them.
It also transitions easily from quiet seasonal traditions to active imaginative play. A simple square of silk can become part of a costume, a landscape for favorite figures, or the beginning of a new adventure—inside or outdoors.

FOUNDED BY WOMEN. BUILT FOR ADVENTURE.
ODSS was started by mothers who saw firsthand how time outside builds resilient, confident kids. What began as helping outdoor schools equip students for all-weather learning grew into a bigger mission: Help families raise resilient, confident kids by making it easier for children to stay outside longer.
Testimonials
For us, the right gear from ODSS supports what we believe most about childhood. When children are able to be outside every day, in all seasons, they become tenacious, confident, and develop an authentic relationship with the land.

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped! As we open up a new program, preparing our first group of kiddos for any weather was at the top of our priority list, and ODSS came through with insight, expertise, and the coolest, most dependable gear around! Thank you ODSS!
