What does Carter love most about nature?

What I love most about nature is the treasure hunt. I’m always looking for cute animals, hidden waterfalls, bright colorful flowers, and the coolest mushrooms growing in the forest. Every time I go outside it feels like a new adventure waiting to be discovered.


What is Carter's favorite animal—and why?

My favorite animal is a cheetah because they run really, really fast and they are wild like me. I also love their beautiful spotted coats because they remind me of fashion. If I could be an animal, I think I would be a cheetah because they are smart, strong, and beautiful. 🐆✨


What is Carter's favorite outdoor activity?

My favorite outdoor activity is climbing rocks. When I climb to the top, I can see so many amazing views all around me. Sometimes I even dance on the rocks because it makes me feel like I’m on top of the world. I love seeing everything out there in nature from way up high.
