Outdoor class at Crossroads Park

Another well spent day at Crossroads Park! The weather was perfect, we had cloudy and muggy weather in the early morning, chilly and sprinkles in the late morning and full sun in the early afternoon. I love Washington weather. The kiddos played golf today...more like discovery golf. It was so cute to see them so interested in the sport. Big thanks to Par 3 golfcourse for letting us golf each time we visit.

We collected pine cones and made little characters using pom-poms and wiggle eyes. The children watered our garden, pulled weeds, rolled down hills, played baseball and so much more.  Snack and lunch time always amazes me with these kiddos.  They sit so nicely and for at least 20 minutes eating with their friends. 

One student noticed a tree had white all over the trunk. I explained to all the children about tree sap and how it's comparable to blood. Of course, I explained in  many different words. LOL The cutest thing said by a 3 year old was...."Ms. Salouma why is the tree bleeding?" LOL LOL too cute. I explained once again what sap is. We even talked about eating maple syrup. :)

We never have enough time to do all the things listed for the outdoor class.  Fun times at Crossroads Park!
