Receive Text UpdatesJonah loves nature because it feels like a giant playground full of discoveries. He’s happiest outside, exploring his surroundings and finding new things to learn. Animals are his favorite part, he thinks they’re cool, interesting, and full of fun facts he loves to share. Being in nature makes him curious, excited, and connected to the world around him. He also loves to explore plants and rocks. He has plant and rock identifier apps and scans everything to see what it is.
Jonah’s favorite animals are tigers and sharks. He thinks tigers are the coolest, cats because they are powerful swimmers, fast runners, and amazing climbers. They’re the biggest and strongest cat. Sharks fascinate him just as much, especially the great white, because he is the apex predator of the ocean. He honestly loves all animals and knows a lot about them. We read animal books every night, and he’s worn out his favorite one enough times that we’ve had to replace it more than once.
Jonah’s favorite outdoor activities are playing outside with his brother, jumping on the trampoline and trying new flips, and going to the beach to explore ocean animals. He loves searching for creatures along the shore and lights up every time he finds something new. Being outdoors with his brother and discovering animals in their habitats makes him feel adventurous, curious, and completely in his element.
