They are so fun when they curl into a ball! I also like splashing in water and getting wet. Nature feels like a big playground where I can have fun and be happy.” Elanor is her best self when outdoors!
“Bunnies are my favorite because they can hop super fast and hide in little burrows like a secret house! They’re so soft and fluffy, and they hop everywhere.”
“Playing in water is my favorite thing to do outside. I like rivers, the ocean, and even puddles after it rains. I love jumping, splashing, and making leaf boats to float in streams. It feels like a big, fun adventure every time I play.”
