On our way to the forest, we saw our friend Belle and her mom! Belle is a very large sweet dog that lives on the corner. Every time we go on a walk, we walk past Belle's house. So the children see Belle quite a bit. The children are always so excited to say HI Belle! We are so lucky to be located in a neighborhood that has soooooo many opportunities for us to make connections to the community. The Forest is one of those wonderful spots!
As we continued our adventure to the forest, we stop for every piece of nature we see. A small acorn, a stick, a rock, and every once in a while we small flags that we are NOT supposed to touch.
Once in the Forest, we sit on the blue blanket and eat our morning snack, then finally we head into the forest.
Here they come.....
THe girls were running and screaming with great JOY, I then asked them if they could hear the bird singing loudly? They stopped screaming, and heard the bird, they looked at me, turned around and ran and screamed!
I squatted down to the children's height to get a new perspective of the Forest. How big are the trees when the children look up?
At this point, everyone has a stick.Some of them proudly put the stick in the air to show me.
While others, walk around the shadows, saying stick, stick.
