Buzz buzz buzz go the pollinators in the prairie! Spring Nature TOTS wrapped up the session exploring the work of pollinators in the prairie and checking out the new storybook path along the red trail. Then we watered our garden and talked about what to expect this summer when we return in August!

How does your garden grow? By planting seeds and giving them soil, sun, and water of course! Nature TOTS continued our garden work by planting seeds of vegetables of different shapes and colors that we will harvest during summer TOTS in August. Then we checked in on our tadpoles at the creek to see how big they have gotten. Plus we spotted a few spittle bugs along the trail. So much fun in the spring woods!

Rain rain, stay and play! Nothing says spring like spring showers, and Nature TOTS had so much fun playing in the rain 💧 We discovered so much life in the leaf litter of the garden from ants to spiders to pill bugs! We looked at plant leaves and roots and sorted by shape and color, and prepped the gardens for planting next week. Then we explored how water drops and paint mix while practicing fine motor skills with pipettes. So much fun in the spring woods on a rainy day!
