Just what do nature preschoolers do in Spring? Here’s what emerged this week as we discovered habits of birds in spring:
- making a nests out of cat tail fluff
- making binoculars with toilet paper rolls (it never gets old!)
- finding “wormies”
- creating worm homes in mud puddles
- exploring the wetlands and making mazes through the cattails
- tallying the birds we observed in the meadow
- checking in on a tree swallow nest
- making observational drawings of birds
- scooping, measuring and pouring bird seed in the sensory table
- sharing letters from our pen pals at the Audubon Nature Preschool in birding adventures
