Chihuly Exhibit at the Desert Botanical Garden...
Phoenix Desert Botanical Garden. So pretty, especially with the Chihuly glass exhibits. Photos do not do them justice. Carolers and various musical groups performed on the numerous stages at the garden. We had hot chocolate and spent a couple of hours there.
Wild Science Academy....
Skating all morning, then Wild Science Academy at the Zoo, then Luminarias at the Botanical Garden. Long day!
In Wild Science, they studied "Animal Tracks", in particular the cheetah- the only cat that cannot retract its claws. In the cheetah enclosure (without the cheetah) looking at cheetah scat, footprints, and scratches the cheetah makes on the trees:)
In the classroom looking at and discussing the fruit bat.
Each student had to make a poster with footprints on it that told a story. Then they had to tell the story to the class. "There was a bear, and another bear came by, then the chipmunk ran fast, and the bear wasn't hungry".
Grumpy Jasmine giving me a dirty look because she doesn't want me to be there:))
