| Forging new friendships on the trail. |
This week at Keep It Simple Farm, Tiny Treks was exploring and learning more about the great outdoors. Every child was given their own spray bottle full of water and off we went in search of spider webs to highlight with water. The kids were able to spot webs quickly after last week's search. The kids are beginning to forge new friendships and to feel comfortable playing with each other.

| It must be autumn-look at those leaves! |
We hunted in the woods for spiders but since it was so wet, pretty soon we were finding slugs instead. We'll learn more about slugs next week-but we were able to investigate how they move. We even had a slug book to have fun reading!
Tiny Treks strives to teach according to what is happening in the natural world at any time. When we looked closely at the super tall sunflowers one of the children noticed that the yellow petals were all gone. Then we observed the smaller sunflowers-one of which had a bumblebee attached to it. A dead bumblebee in fact. I wonder if it will still be there next week?
We didn't forget to have fun playing in the hay stacks. What a cool hideout? I heard some magical stories playing out inside-while others just enjoyed coming out the back "window!"
