That was the theme in the new NWF Big Backyard magazine Olivia got in the mail yesterday. We've already read it cover to cover.
It is really neat how things all come together when we are learning about new things. Olivia and I were recently talking about teeth...and how you can sometimes figure out what an animal eats by it's teeth. Then along comes the toucans and we start talking about the differences in birds' bills for what they eat. (reminds me of reading about Darwin and his Galapagos finches)
And speaking of birds...I have been crocheting some birds just in the last couple days. I'll have to share them in a seperate post.
We also talked about amphibians...which reminded me of the gift the girls got from their aunt...a grow your own frog kit. We just need to send off for the little frog babies! How neat will that be!?
There was a story in the magazine about searching for signs of spring. We love doing that...searching for signs of the new seasons. We will definitely be doing it this spring, too!
