Receive Text UpdatesNature is Gwendolyn’s happy place—where she can hang out with bugs, birds, toads, you name it! She’s got a knack for learning all the critters names and figuring out what they’re up to (even if some of them look like they belong in a monster movie). But the best part for her? Just being there—soaking up the sunshine, listening to the birds chirp, and going on wild little adventures where possibilities are endless.
Gwen absolutely adores wolves! She’s totally hooked on their eerie howls and loves to imitate them whenever she can. To her, wolves are the perfect mix of fierce, cute, and a little bit scary — basically the coolest animal ever!
Gwen’s favorite thing to do is get outside and explore! She’s always up for a hike or an adventure, especially if it means spotting cool critters—reptiles and amphibians are her favorite. Every year, we go on a mission to find tadpoles and track their magical transformation into frogs. It’s become our little tradition, checking in as they grow and change. Gwen lights up watching nature do its thing—it’s like having front-row seats to one of the greatest shows on Earth!
