What is Jr. Ranger?
Learn MoreHe loves playing imaginary. He finds chalk and pretends it’s an animal egg. He finds grass, leaves and twigs to care for it. He looks in nature as a playground. Exploration. He doesn’t see the simple, he sees the joy embedded into the experience. What he loves the most about nature is that he can be himself and that even at most when he is preforming it’s his reality. He loves to expand the experience.
He will not pick a specific animal. Anytime you ask he will list a handful and look at me. “Ughh they are all my favorite”. The specific he has mentioned is an eagle. He loves the depth and detail in the way they fly and look.
Elias favorite outdoor activity is very simple it’s roll playing he loves creating stories and plot twists in nature. More than half the time he could be in a non amusing backyard and make it seem that he has truly walked on a mountain, or saving an animal or saving someone’s life.
