Exploring Mother Nature

Our momstown Milton little explorers went on a scavenger hunt today around the Mill Pond. Each toddler was handed a scavenger list of items that they would need to search for during our walk around the pond. They came well prepared with safari hats, butterfly nets and binoculars to aid in the adventure they were about to have.

It was amazing to watch the tots take in and observe everything that crossed their path. High or low, up and down, they left no stone unturned. Some took the search rather seriously and were determined to check off every item on the list, while others just took their time to smell the roses and absorb it all in.





We were rather lucky to see a few live creatures up close and personal! Wow check out the fuzzy caterpillar on the twig or the baby goslings that swam right by us. While others like the turtles sun bathing on the log or the fish in the pond we had to observe from a distance.





All in all, we had a great time identifying the items on the list and I'm pretty certain that at least one little keener found them all! Our next Little Explorers event is scheduled for July 7th. Hope you are able to join us on our exciting adventure!
