Receive Text UpdatesCairo has loved nature since a baby, when stroller walks in nature helped him sleep peacefully. Now older, he cherishes the many shades of green, the musical sound of waterfalls, and colorful flowers from daisies to tulips. He especially enjoys watching butterflies and ladybugs go about their tiny lives. Though he loves video games, Cairo finds something special in nature that screens can't match. Nature calms his anxiety, sparks his curiosity, and connects him to the wonderful mother Earth.
Besides dogs, Cairo thinks penguins are the coolest animals ever! Their round bodies and tuxedo-like feathers make them super cute. He laughs every time he sees them waddle from side to side. What he loves the most is how they transform in water, suddenly becoming amazing swimmers, gliding through the ocean with incredible speed and grace. And when they slide on their bellies across the snow? He thinks it's the most fun thing in the world...He wishes he could join them!
Cairo’s bike takes him on the best adventures! He loves bike riding at parks where he can explore different places, discovering hidden paths and secret spots he’s never seen. The absolute best feeling is the freedom—just him deciding where to go and how fast to get there. Sometimes he zooms at top speed, heart racing with excitement; other times he pedals slowly, soaking in all the wonders around him.
