Hidden Pond Nature Center

Lauren and Ellie enjoyed meeting the turtles and snakes at the nature center today. Lauren was really into learning about the amphibians and reptiles. Ellie was really into climbing up on all of the benches and steps. She seemed to enjoy the fish the most.

Here is Lauren's new friend, the box turtle. The high school students who staffed the nature center were very knowledgeable and good with the children.


Here she is touching a snake!

Here she is looking at stinkpot turtles and potato bugs with a magnifying glass.

There was also a fun path around the pond with lots of docks to stand on.

Ellie gave Lauren lots of hugs today.
