Molly's "Camp"

Molly attended a program at Briar Bush Nature Center for 2-4 year olds called "Magic Mornings."  Each one has a theme--the first was Numbers in Nature.  The kids listen to a story, do a musical activity, make a craft, eat snack, go on a nature walk, and get to touch some of the animals.

Molly calls it "camp" because Ella went to a camp program there over the summer and she is excited that this time she gets to go now.  Here are a few pictures from the first one a few weeks ago:

(Ratty is a rat stuffed animal that Rob got her in England--she loves him!)

 Look at me!

 watching the cockroaches carefully

 trying to count all of the fish

 being a butterfly coming out of her chrysalis

 finger painting a caterpillar

 She volunteered to be the first one to hold the Madagascar Hissing Cockroach!

silly face when water splashes on you
