Nature Study - Tuesday May 4

Nature Study seems so hard to do. You know go outside and look at what is around us! I typically feel that I have to have the answers or know what we are going to see. Well today, I gave up and we went on a nature walk. Did we find things that were exciting? Yes, to the boys we did. Our walk start more as a running race.

Then they start walking. Even boys can only run so far. We spotted many birds, different types of trees, dandelions and even a few dragon flys. Here is Matthew proudly blowing the seeds of a dandelion.

At the end of the path we found a playgound. The boys thought this was a good place to take a play break. We didn't stay for long because the slides were all wet. Hopefully next time we can play longer. On our way back along the same path, the boys were now walking and looking all around. They were excited to find many, many ants working and all of thier holes.

Overall, it was a great walk. Now, we just need to keep doing this and I think the boys will discover many other exciting things out in Nature.
