Be Out There - National Wildlife Federation

This is it!!! Be Out There Week. March 15-21. What a great way to welcome Spring!

Today in preschool, we spent 3 out of 4 hours outside.

First, we made Tied-Dyed T-shirts. We plan to wear our own artwork when we visit the Mint Museuem of Art in April.

Then, we took a nice long Nature Walk. Sniffing around, we realized the smell of the woods has changed. New life is growing!

We climbed trees, swung on a vine, dug in the sand by the stream and went fishing.

We read a story on the bridge about the Swaggering Crow, who made an appearance for us in our very own woods!!

While hiking back to school, we heard lots of birds, saw several Robins and spied one Downy Woodpecker right over our heads.

Today would've been a perfect picnic day, but we didn't have our lunches. No worries, we'll try it again next time!!
