Nature Walk

Betsy Grace's class at school has been going on nature walks around the church campus. They each get a special bag to put fun things in nature that they find and they have been talking about the colors that Fall brings, the different textures of items and then they all get to share their most favorite part. Her teacher sends a weekly email that recaps the week and she shares quotes from each child, it is hilarious! Even at the age of 2, their little personalities are so vivid! The best part of my day is picking her up from school and her telling me what she did, who she played with and what she learned about. Since I know how much she loves the nature walks at school, we had a little one of our own the other day.

We found a big rock to stand on and she was so proud that she could get up there on her own. No help from mommy is her preference!

We laid in the street and stared up at the trees
(thankfully our street in a deadend, so this is not as dangerous as you think)

We tasted a little straw and decided that even though mommy said it was yucky,
it tasted good...gross!

We looked at the vegetables in our neighbor's garden

We gathered pinecones and leaves and put them in the stroller

And we touched the prickly needles on a tree.

And after our fun adventure, we took a long nap!
