Oh My Goodness! Fantastic week ahead – and excellent links that you’ve provided. We’ve just watched the first video, “Mosses Life Cycle,” and am shocked how intricate the life cycle is. I had no idea!! Absolutely none! Well, I guess it is a good example for my kids that I can be wowed, too 😉
Thank you! I’m so glad that it is helpful.
Happy exploring!
Y’all make it so easy to explore nature with the kids. So fun! Thx!! Wish I had this 10 years ago with the first batch of kids.
We are on our second batch here and agree with you completely! Very funny! Better late than never it seems : )
Thank you, Nicole!
