Receive Text UpdatesPeyton likes climbing trees, watching animals, and finding fossils, gems and minerals. She enjoys camping and seeing the stars. She is currently very interested in space and loves using her telescope. She also shows interest in how many different kinds of plants there are and has fun helping in our garden.
Otters are her favorite animal because they’re super smart and adorable! She likes that they hold hands when they sleep so they don’t float away, and sometimes wrap themselves in kelp to stay in place. They can close their ears and nose when they dive, and hold their breath for up to 8 minutes! Plus, they even juggle rocks for fun.
Peyton has too many favorite activities to choose from. She loves looking through her telescope, playing outside, foraging for plants, climbing rocks and trees, planting in the garden, and building little shelters for rollie pollies. She likes watching for wildlife, using fallen leaves for arts and crafts, and exploring new state and national parks.
