Green Hour Challenge # 2

This time we went to our local park and took the afternoon wandering and checking everything out. We sat and listened to the waterfall.


Investigated moss growing on a log.



Noticed berries starting to grow.



Discussed how and why this tree is decomposing.


We sat together and talked..... tried to skip rocks across the water.


Pointed out insects inside this log.


Came home and worked on our notebook page.


But most of all we really had a great time. We enjoyed our time outdoors and took advantage of the nice weather.

Green Hour Challenge # 1

We started working on Barb's Green Hour Challenges about a couple of weeks ago and I thought I would share our discoveries.

For the first challenge we took a little walk in our neighborhood. Unfortunately, our tiny strip of woods was littered with trash and glass....However we were able to check out the moss growing....



Signs of spring coming....


Evidence of a squirrel's kitchen table.....



Here is the drawing that Morgan made of the moss we found......


And we completed the notebook page that Tina was so kind to offer....


We started late joining the Challenges but are enjoying the time that we are taking each week for out nature walk.

What's for dinner?

A couple of weeks ago Morgan wanted to cook us dinner and of course I couldn't object! So I let her choose what she wanted to cook and let her get to work.....!
Here are some of those photos....


Here she is struggling with the can opener! So I did end up helping her open it, but everything else was all her. I just stood behind and took pictures :)



Checking the ham to flip it


Taking the corn out of the microwave.



Dinner is served! She was just so proud of herself!
