Oh the wonders of winter hikes!
So much to see, so many hills and rocks to climb, and so many animals to greet.
We've spent these last few weeks acquainting our newest friends with the spoils of nature, encouraging them to get close to the action, to initiate their own exploration and simply to PLAY--to get dirty, open their eyes and take in all that nature has to offer.
We found a hungry flock of geese to observe, some deep deep woods to forage through, and abandoned our wagons to climb the steepest, greatest hill in the park. There were a few good tumbles as our friends challenged their bodies and bravely brushed off the dirt to keep on exploring. Then came great gasps and shouts of accomplishment as they reached the top of the mount!
What a class! What a park! What a great season for learning! We are very proud of our tiny adventurers!
