Fall Festival at the Botanic Gardens

Published by suzannegarverick at 1:34 pm under Uncategorized




We had such a fantastic time today!! Thank you to all the chaperones who made my life so much easier today: Olivia’s Mom, Jordan’s Mom, Nathan’s Dad, and Juston’s Mom. It could not have been a prettier day.

Ask your child this evening what he/she learned today. I think you will be surprised. We learned about bats an “echolocation”, honey bees and pollination, how Native Americans used corn, the differences between fruits and vegetables, and how seeds are dispersed. We also got to play in a haystack, make “Apple Monsters”, and paint a pumpkin. All of that was followed with a picnic and some playtime in the Spider Maze.

Here are some pictures for you to enjoy.

    Fantastic pictures. It looks like the kids learned a lot and had a fantastic day. I’m glad so many parents helped out, too!
