What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn moreSeeing how the world works. How things are connected and why animals do what they do (like camouflage) for a reason. He enjoys the science of nature and of course the cuteness. A jellyfish is just as cute as a cat to him.
It's a toss up between jellyfish and cats. He loves jellyfish and was so excited to touch them at an aquarium in San Diego. I think we spent 30 minutes just learning about and touching jellyfish. He also likes to play jellyfish sting. Cats are probably tied as his favorite stuffed animals are cats (he has five). We have two cats and they are his favorite pets.
Jacob's favorite outdoor activity is playing in the backyard. Finding roly polies, mosquito eaters, ladybugs, worms and caterpillars to play with in the garden. He also loves climbing trees and playing in lakes and rivers.
