Last weekend we finally found a meal's worth of mushrooms. Of course, my hubby is the best mushroom tracker between the two of us. Maybe it's because I sit in the forest taking selfies of me and my dog and the wildflowers?
Monday we had new morning challenges:
Adult vs. Offspring review...
Animal puzzles...
Animal track matching...
We created several little books about animals this week!
We also made these cutie patotie raccoons!
