He’s always finding new trails to explore or discovering bugs, leaves, and rocks he hasn’t seen before. He especially enjoys using his imagination to turn nature into his playground—one day he’s a mountain explorer, the next he’s building a hideout deep in the forest. Being in nature helps him feel free, calm, and full of energy.
Sharks! Callan is fascinated by how powerful and mysterious sharks are. He loves learning about the different kinds, from great whites to hammerheads, and how they each play an important role in the ocean’s ecosystem. He thinks it’s amazing how they’ve survived for millions of years and still rule the seas. Callan even pretends to be a shark when he’s swimming!
Swimming. Callan feels totally in his element when he’s in the water. Whether he’s splashing, diving for toys, or pretending to be a sea animal, he could spend hours swimming and never get bored. He loves the feeling of floating and the challenge of holding his breath underwater.
