Nature Head to Toe, 08.02 - 08.03

Monday, August 2: We explored the nature center while focusing on two senses: sight and sound. We used our ears to listen to the sounds of nature in order to check everything off of our sound-scavenger hunt! We used binoculars, checked out the pond for fish and frogs, explored forts left by other campers, and even climbed INSIDE a tree! On our hike we searched for bugs and even saw Summer the deer in a beautiful field of flowers. 

Tuesday, August 3: We explored nature from our nose to our toes. We used egg cartons to collect items for a scavenger hunt such as seeds, flowers, and rocks. Using our nose, we tried to find the best and worst smelling thing in nature! Best of all, we stimulated all of our senses in our awesome mud kitchen! Playing in mud can be new and intimidating to some, but once you take your first step and let the mud squish between your toes, the possibilities become endless: mud pies, mud coffee (hold the cream and sugar), spaghetti, and mud balls!
