Happy Earth Day and Arbor Day!

Today we celebrated Earth and Arbor Day. We went to Heritage Museum and Gardens, did arts and crafts and planted a tree! We saw ladybugs being released by the museum staff. It was amazing. Lily and Aj got to hold them.
Aj and Lily played a game where they had to figure out which items had to be recycled.
Hidden Hollow is our favorite place to play in the museum.
We couldn't leave the museum without going on the carousel or seeing the cars.
We planted a Paw-Paw tree in our yard.
Here are the Eart Day magnets we made and some books we read this week.
