“I love finding cool animals like turtles, snakes, frogs, and salamanders. It’s so fun to explore their habitats and see where they live. One of my favorite things to do is flip over rocks and logs to discover what’s hiding underneath. You never know what awesome creature you’ll find!”
“My favorite animal is a frog because I have two as pets. I love how they hop around and how easy they are to catch. Their life cycle is really cool—they start as tadpoles and then go through metamorphosis to become frogs. It’s awesome to watch them grow and change!”
“My favorite outdoor activity is catching frogs. I also love using my nets and containers to catch pretty much anything that moves! I just really like being outside—whether I’m in the woods, by a lake, or exploring a stream. I also like looking for tracks and clues to figure out what animals have been around. It’s like going on an adventure every time!”
