A Great Trip!

How lucky were we? The sun came out, the temperature rose and the wind died down. It was a beautiful afternoon and we had a great time out at Boggy Creek. A huge thanks to 18a's mom who helped us out on this trip. Also thanks to all the families who made sure their children were dressed appropriately for a winter trip. I feel it is very important that Saskatchewan children learn to appreciate our wonderful outdoors and with that comes learning how to prepare and dress for our weather. We saw all kinds of animal tracks and learned a lot about how animals live in the winter. We had a lot of fun playing the animal hunting game. There was lots of interest in the beaver lodge and dam as well as the two "beaver's kitchens" that we came across. Around the beginning of March we will begin a study of beavers.  I wanted this trip to "pique" their interest in beavers.  

Here are a few pictures of our trip.
