It turned out to be a beautiful day and we spent it at the Lakeside Nature Center, celebrating Earth Day and the birthday of a turtle that lives there.
A play put on by the Stone Lion Puppets about the ecosystems that are in our own backyards.
This is a very touchy museum. The children are encouraged to touch just about everything.
They were supposed to be making cards for the turtle, but since their Papa’s birthday party is tomorrow, they decided to make cards for him instead. 🙂
Looking at owl feathers, insects wings, rabbit hair and some other things up close.

A little snack before heading home.
