Waning Crescent Moon
Today
we had quite the adventure visiting the Garcia River at Voorhees! We
began by slipping our way down the hill to the Redwood grove for morning
circle. After songs and check in we played and climbed for a short
while before coming back together for snack. Following snack, we put on
our backpacks and wandered down the river to explore. We were
searching for frogs, lizards, and fishes. Frogs there were a plenty!
We stopped at several shallow spots along the river and to catch the
cute little amphibians. The children did an excellent job holding the
frogs gently and then mindfully releasing them back into the river. We also
saw different types of water bugs, fishes, and even a big crayfish! On
our wander we also found an extra huge tangle of blackberry brambles,
and it was FULL of fat juicy berries! You know we just had to stop for a
second snack! Blackberry stained, sun-kissed, and damp from playing
the river, we said
thank you and
goodbye to the land and made our way back to school.
