Ant adventures....

Today we went to the "Ant-Sized Adventures" at Mission Trails. It is a nice little program for preschoolers given by a ranger. We met in the library and the ranger read some stories and taught us about rabbits. Then we went on a short hike to search for rabbits and rabbit burrows and along the way we learned about the flora and fauna around us. We never found rabbits but we did find some scat (one of the vocabulary words we learned...technical term for rabbit poop). During the hike, Noah was not a happy camper and cried for a good bit, I took him out of the Ergo and he wailed a flailed his body louder than ever before. I couldn't wait for the group any more and went ahead to the visitor's center. He calmed down and so we joined the rest of the group. We went into a classroom for a craft: bunny ears, and a snack: peeps. All in all it was a good time, I do think that everyone was tired...everyone was asleep within minutes of coming in the house....Noah didn't even make it out of the parking lot awake! I'm thinking that we'll do it again next month!
