Learn MoreI love it all! I want to be outside all the time. I love going exploring with my dad and finding new places in the woods, we found a cave and waterfall last summer.
Most of all I love the worms, they help the earth breathe! I protect them from getting smashed on the playground and after it rains. I like caterpillars too because they turn into butterflies!
My favorite outdoor activity is playing in the mud and creek at our house. Last summer I found fish, snails, crayfish, tadpoles, snappy turtles, tadpoles and a baby frog! I build them houses and tell them stories.
