NATURE KIND OF WEEK!

We are really enjoying our lighter homeschooling during the summer. The boys are loving all the nature studies we have been doing. Last week we spent 3 days with friends at various local nature center's, observing and learning about God's wonderful creations!

Day 1 -- enjoying sea life

Day 2 - learning about sea turtles in the bature center then we went on a nature walk

After each day my oldest son would chose his favorite part of the nature study and write about it:

  3. What a great nature center! I've been looking around our area for something like this and haven't found one yet. Thanks for the printable! We've been doing a lot of nature/critter work so this will be great to go with it. :)
