Happy Earth Day!

​Spring is showing up for real and the kids are loving it. We have ventured into the "poison jungle" (so named last year and it stuck) where we discovered luminous native plants like sorrel, which we love, and a clearing under the bridge to explore. We have examined some patches of earth to see how many creatures we could find in one area, lounged in and under trees. We harvested dandelions to make dandelion fritters. Yum! One day this week Peppi's woods hosted an extremely well run restaurant featuring "lilac smoothies", "daisy doodles" and more, complete with a check out station, a dishwashing area and a lovely display area. Other games included hide and seek in the woods, exploring magnifying glasses - and we can't leave out baseball! It's been a blast.
