We changed things up a bit today. We woke up and it was 31 degrees but
was supposed to get up to 70F by the afternoon.
So we waited until after
we picked up Isaac from preschool to do our nature hike and Isaac got to
tag along.
We chose Green Gorge because it’s a short hike and I knew
Isaac could handle it.
It also follows a creek the whole way, so I was pretty confident that Isaac would
stay interested.
Of course Jack wanted to run ahead the whole time
and Isaac didn’t like being left behind, but he did the whole hike
himself (even after sticking a foot in the water!).
The weather was
perfect and now I know we can keep hiking this summer when Isaac is out
of preschool.
The focus of today's lesson was the plant life cycle.
Jack’s favorite
thing about seeds getting dispersed is that animals can eat seeds and
poop them out later 
Check back on Tuesdays to see where our nature studies have taken us...
