Is your trailblazer the next Jr. Ranger?
Learn MoreRyder loves the freedom of nature and the ability to discover new things. His favorite thing about nature so far is animals but he is on his way to understanding what connects all things and why preservation and conservation is so important. (In fact, his favorite ride now at Disney is Living with the Land)
While he often changes his favorite animal because he loves so many, his current favorite is actually a chicken! He just experienced the lifecycle of a chicken and was able to watch chicks hatch in his Kindergarten classroom!
If it’s outdoors, Ryder loves it! From blowing bubbles and running around a park, to discovering cool shaped leaves and riding his atv, you can bet he is ready to do it if it’s outside in the fresh air!
