Friday fun

Winter in Central Arkansas is not terribly cold but it's still cold enough for these recent Floridians to nest as much as possible. We are still finding plenty of opportunities for play and learning. 

We've spent the day playing Pokepark 2, then participated in the Great Backyard Bird Count, played with the dragon stuffed animals, and then Skylanders.



Finally the image above is the beginnings of a setup with My Little Pony, play animals, and various other items used to create an entire ecosystem.

Heifer International

Today we visited Heifer International in downtown Little Rock. Fun day checking out their displays, gift shop, and gardens followed by a trip to Loblolly Ice Cream yum.

 Entering Heifer International's Little Rock building.

Checking out the value of "fair-trade" items.

Adding her name to the artwork.

Caitlyn's idea for how to help provide food for communities.
