Nature Explore Families' Club

This past Saturday our Families' Club visited Wilderness Park. We tried out one of the Family Toolkit activities from the Environmental Action Kit (www.worldforum.org). Children definitely took the lead on the journey finding animal tracks in the mud and snow. Children also discovered that the soft ground was easy to push branches into and several worked together to build a lean-to fort!

Hi Chris, I am thrilled to hear that the family nature club is still going strong! I wish we could still come to our fun gatherings. Sam turned 5 yesterday and we celebrated by having a family nature hike and invited four other families. The kids had a terrific time playing in the forest, climbing trees and rocks and playing camouflage games. I hope you are well. I would love to hear more about what you are doing....both at work and as a friend!! Cheers, Brooke
