Putting together all the ingredients to make an Earth Seed Ball. Seeds like dill, coneflower, clover and milkweed are all great flowering plants for butterflies.

A circle is round. Blue circles were painted using packing foam or corks with only blue and green paint. This way the blue circle looks like the planet Earth as viewed from outer space and you can also take it home.
Some interesting things were collected today. Snails, slugs, caterpillar, pine cones and goldenrod galls to name a few. Lots of fun looking and discovering! What fascinated your child today?
Happy Trails! Dragonfly, Heron, and Ladybug
