Today, Drama King wanted to do his nature walk so Daddy grabbed his camera and we took one of our two dogs with us on the walk. We made a circle around our home which led us through the wash behind our house. Drama King took his “camera” which is one of those fake cartoon (Cars in this case) camera that just make the camera click sound and a bucket to collect any flowers or seeds he came across. We saw lots of pretty colored flowers and a few animals. We’ll redo this walk a) when it’s a little cooler outside and b) when more things are out and in bloom. Drama King had a blast no matter how little we saw.
I told him that tomorrow we would print out the pictures and make a book for him to share with everyone. Get a copy of the blank book that I made here. After his walk, he said “Mom. I need to get a pet for my school.” As if having fish, cats and dogs just weren’t “pet” enough for school. LOL We’ve been thinking about getting some little frogs to go in his old goldfish tank and a desert tortoise for the back yard. It’s a lengthy process to get a desert tortoise but we thought it’d be an amazing experience for the kids and I’ve always wanted one.
That’s about it for today. I’ll post a copy of the finished book later.
