Friday Fun

Today we went to Madrona Marsh, a nature preserve nearby, to check out Friday Fun. It's a little preschool they put on each week with a nature theme.

Checking out the tortoise in the atrium

This week we learned about ducks. Shelby got to waterproof a feather, hear a duck story, and then glue together her own paper mallard.

This "seat" on a tree was her favorite part of the hike. She made me sit there with her after I took this photo.

Then we went for a hike around the nature preserve to spot different kinds of ducks.

The science bug bit her - she loved looking at bugs and leaves in the microscope.

It was really cute. Once it's not right in the middle of nap time, I'm sure we will go more and more. Cameron crashed on my shoulder for a few minutes, but he could have used some more sleep. He had a ball with the big kids and they both enjoyed learning about nature.
