What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn MoreHe loves being outdoors with our nature playgroup, tending our amateur backyard garden, going on hikes and nature walks, but what brings the most delight is spotting animals--birds, snakes, frogs, butterflies.
It's a hard choice, but he says a toucan. I have a photo of him just historically laughing at a toucan a the zoo when he was right around 2. He loves it because it is colorful with a fun, curious nature!
There are many to choose from, but probably going to the zoo is his favorite! There is such a sense of wonder and discovery with close up animal encounters. He loves drawing the animals that he meets there.
