This Week’s Adventures: We fell more in love with nature as we dreamed up ways to help and care for our Earth.
Favorite Activities: We helped wild animals by offering food such as nuts and seeds. We turned the compost and added to the pile. In preparation for Valentine’s Day, we made mailboxes from recycled materials. We loved reading The Garbage Monster by Joni Sensel and doing recycled relay races to sort and re-use “trash”. It was another nature-lovin’ week of fun!
