Start Their AdventureWhat I love most about nature is being outside where everything feels free and fun. I like hearing birds, climbing trees, and looking for cool bugs or animals. Nature is never boring—there’s always something to explore. I like how the air smells fresh and how quiet it can be. It’s the best place to run around, build forts, and use my imagination.
My favorite animal in the Pacific Northwest is the black bear. They’re big and strong, but they mostly just want to be left alone. I think it’s cool how they can climb trees and find food like berries and fish. They look kind of scary, but they’re actually smart and good at surviving in the wild. I’d never want to meet one up close, but I think they’re awesome.
My favorite outdoor activity is building forts in the woods. I like finding big sticks, piling up branches, and making secret hideouts with my friends. Sometimes we pretend we’re explorers or on a mission. It’s fun because I get to use my imagination and be creative. I like being outside where there’s space to run, climb, and make cool stuff out of nature.
