Springtime Preschool Nature Program

Julia went to the Flower Buds (aka preschool) program at Brookside Gardens this morning.  Even though it was a bit chilly and damp, the story time was held outside, in a gazebo.
 Then the kids went on a hike and scavenger hunt, looking for all sorts of plants and critters along the way.

 Julia loved seeing this baby (snapping) turtle, burrowed in a hole.  It was cute, but we weren't even the slightest bit tempted to try and touch it!
 The last activity of the day was planting a pansy in a rain boot pot.  At first Julia didn't want to touch the dirt.  But then she got over it and didn't mind getting her hands dirty.
 Ta da!  Dirty hands and a potted plant!
