Nina has two favorite animals - dolphins and dogs. She loves them because they are both playful and fun. She identifies with them because they are both explorative like her, that they are curious and not afraid to check things out.
Nina's favorite outdoor activity is to collect specimens of nature. She loves to gather rocks, minerals, sticks, leaves, worms, bugs, flowers, and sea shells. She loves to put these samples under her microscope to get a closer look at cellular structure, and how they come together to create the natural world.
