Audubon for Kate

Kate and I enjoyed a weekly preschool class at the Audubon Society over a four week period.  Each week, the class focused on a different habitat.

The first class was all about the forest.  As we walked through the forest, the children turned over logs, looked up in trees, and explored everything in their path.

 Kate liked putting bugs in her bug jar for examination.

The wetlands were the focus of our second class.  Nets were used to scoop out sludge that we examined for little critters.  We found and observed dragonfly larvae, snails, fingernail clams, and snail eggs.

Kate touched a whelk during our third class when we learned about tide pools and the animals that live in them.

During our final class we explored the meadow.

The Audubon Society runs so many great programs.  Kate and I both enjoyed this class and we hope to return for classes again in the fall.
