Receive Text UpdatesNature for Hadley isn’t learning by a text book; it’s about being outdoors everyday discovering new springs, rocks and plants in our area. Learning why and how our Earth works. She’s eager to learn more about nature, mushrooms and wildlife by exploring all areas of places we visit. She constantly is wanting to be outdoors and discovering anything she can get into. She also loves to create bows & arrows, sling shots, fishing poles and teepees with nature. She has a incredible imagination.
Hadley’s favorite animal is a cheetah. The cheetah’s strength, stealth, and striking beauty set it apart from every other animal in the kingdom. Hadley is fascinated by them—She one day wants to visit a cheetah conservation and see how she can help these majestic animals. Hadley also loves Sugargliders as she has 3 at home as pets. She is obsessed with sharing her gliders with other kids and teaching them about unique animals. They even won 1st place at the county fair!
Anything outdoors is Hadley’s favorite. She climbs every stump, tree and bush. Hadley is eager to learn about all the animals that live on the property where we live. She loves exploring animal tracks, dens and finding camouflage animals. She isn’t afraid to slowly approach an animal (with parent consent) and study it, help it (if it’s in danger). She wants to know every detail about wildlife, Plant life and nature. If she can’t figure it out she will read about them in her books.
