What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreI love rocks the most! Fossils inside rocks are cool, they also have lots of different colors. Crystals are interesting and can be found in things like salt and snowflakes. I love learning about all the animals that God created. Exploring and finding all the different rocks and animals is my most favorite part.
My favorite animal is a frog. I like catching them and seeing how far they can jump. They also are all different colors and species. My favorite is the tree frogs that climb up the side of our house. You have to remember to wash your hands because their skin can make your eyes burn if you touch them without washing your hands. The tree frogs at our house make a really loud sound for such a little frog.
My favorite thing to do outside is going camping and fishing. This year I hope to catch a bigger fish than last year. I get to camp a lot with my Dad and go fishing with my Papa. They teach me lots of things like how to put up a tent and put the worm on my hook. My mom likes to catch fish but not take them off her fishing pole. When I get bigger I will do that for her.
