Things we’ve done in the forest:
found a mushroom

pretended to be fairies

pretended to be pirates

climbed stumps and rocks

Things we’ve done in the brook:
spied some fingerling fish
practiced throwing rocks
sailed a paper boat downstream

Things we’ve done around town:
swam in the pond
played tee ball on the lawn
climbed trees
caught a toad
splashed in puddles

Things we’ve done at home:
built a lap loom

foraged for a shuttle in the block box

built a LEGO woodworking bench

sliced carrots
hung slices of grapefruit in a tree as a St. John’s decoration
lost a few teeth

Things we’re looking forward to:
a week at The Nature Place
August at Camp Enchantment
crabbing on the Hudson

That sounds like the best summer EVER.
The LEGO workbench is fantastic and, hey, now I wanna make a lap loom! And pretend to be a fairie and a pirate, both in the woods and near the brook.
Thank goodness it’s not too late for me. I just need to schedule some time away from this computer. = )
