We managed to beat the rain today for the first expedition of our week-long Walk Along to Fish Creek Park! We spotted many kinds of trees, lots of new growth, some critters and most excitingly, dried up crab apples still dangling from the trees! We stopped to sketch and label a crab apple tree and enjoyed observing living and non-living things. Ask your child how the thunder sounded when we heard the first rumble!
We plan to go ahead and venture out each day as planned, unless the rain is really coming down. Coats with hoods are preferable to umbrellas so we can keep our hands free for writing!
