What does Ryder love most about nature?

Ryder loves discovering new animals, frogs and bugs, as well as things like mushrooms and cool plants that grow in the woods.


What is Ryder's favorite animal—and why?

Ryder LOVES dinosaurs! He loves them because they are so big and have huge teeth and claws. But if he had to pick an animal thats is NOT extinct, he would pick a wolf, because they are good hunters and have sharp teeth and run in packs like a family.


What is Ryder's favorite outdoor activity?

Ryders favorite activity is climbing big rocks and playing on the swings! If he's on a trail with mom, he's always looking for the biggest and highest rock to climb on and loves to see the view from wherever that may be.
