    Hummingbirds are my favorite animal! We've planted tons of flowers to attract more pollinators to our yard, and it worked! I've loved watching the hummingbirds.

    There are a lot of amazing animals in this crazy world, and I love so many of them, but you just can't beat a dog. The way they love you and the endless grace they show is unparalleled.

    Dogs are by far my favorite animal! They are so so pure and kind, we really don’t deserve them 🥺 they are so loving and it’s like unconditional, without a doubt. Love that so much about them ❤️ I grew up with a big boxer/ german shepherd dog mix and this was by far the kindest animal i‘ve ever known. He lived with my grandparents and my favorite childhood memories include him. I always played dress up with him and on new years eve I but a hat and bow tie on him, poor dog! Bless him, he was so patient with 5 year old me. 😂❤️ A few years ago we rescued a dog from the shelter since we had to put our first one down sadly and this little fire cracker really keeps my grandparents up and gives them a purpose! Dogs are really good companions and for me, they‘re always a full member of our family! We do everything for them as they give us so much back in every was possible ❤️🥰

    Elephants! Elephants are by far my favorite animal! We love incorporating nature walks into our school days when we can, depending on if chemo kicks my butt more so than not (prayers appreciated that I have more good days than bad!). Our 2 oldest are, of course, more interested than the 2 youngest but as time goes on, I'm sure the youngest 2 will show more interest. The youngest 2 are just starting their kindergarten year this year so we're going to have lots of fun. XOXOXO ~Crystal

    I love watching the squirrels in nature. I know a lot of people do not like them, but we have actually raised orphan squirrels in the past and we have found a love for them. They are quite funny, quirky little creatures that remind me of toddlers. But that is what I really enjoy!

    Sea Otters are my absolute favorite animal. When I was a freshman in high school, our biology class got to help clean & care for the sea otters and other animals affected by the Exxon Valdez oil spill in Alaska (where I grew up). It was the most heartbreaking yet rewarding thing I think I’ve ever done and I have loved those feisty little critters ever since.
    I ordered the Hello Nature book on Amazon but also found activity cards to accompany them that I think you might be interested in. They look perfect for our family with varying ages from 11 to 3. I’m super excited about them! Thank you for sharing all your great finds with us! 📚📝🔎🌲🌿

    The hippopotamus! My Grandfather used to sing a song about them! "Mud, mud, glorious mud, nothing quite like it for cooling the blood, so follow me, follow, down to the hollow and there we shall wallow, in glorious mud!" I now sing this to my children (usually when we've got cold and wet on a nature walk in the rainy countryside, we are from Somerset in England by the coast!) The animal fascinates me and the job they do within their habitat is beautiful to learn about! ♥️

    I love these videos so much. Catherine, The Duchess of Cambridge does a lot of work on the early years and childhood development and one of the things she speaks about is the importance of learning outside and what good that does for the brain. I was watching her discuss that with a panel on RUclips yesterday and now your video is saying this.. synchronicity ✨ such a lovely idea. I can’t wait to have kids and take them on an outing like this 😊 I love the bag tip too, keep it all in there so it’s always ready and the stuff doesn’t get lost. Thank you!

    My favorite animals are dogs. When they are loved and cared for properly, their loyalty, intelligence, sense of humor, and playfulness is immeasurable. But honestly, my family loves watching the deer, squirrels, bunnies, groundhogs, turkeys, hummingbirds, and many other birds that frolic through our acreage. :)

    Love this!! I love dogs! But I also love hummingbirds. A mama hummingbird made a nest on our string of lights on our patio. She had two babies and we got to witness it all. It was right beside my washing machine.(I live in SoCAL so my w/d is outside on the patio) We have tons of video and pictures. My five little girls were sooooo excited. It was a really good couple of months. We also had just watched the documentary on amazon about the same thing like a few weeks before. So it was such a nice treat to have our own mama bird and babies!! The eggs were SO tiny.

    Hi Angela! Thank you for all the videos, love watching them! My favorite animals are dogs especially now that we have one. We adopted our chiweenie (a mix of chihuahua and dachshund) from a rescue TinyPaws. She was found wondering the streets of Philly in December, had frostbite on her ears. She still has scars from that. She's so sweet and small. Now of course she's living it up and getting lots of love and kisses, especially from the kids💗

    Loving this video series, Angela! Such good information. While my daughter is young--only 1.5 years old--it gives a lot of food for thought for the direction we may take with her future schooling. So thank you very much for providing this thought-provoking and creative content!!! I'd have to say my favourite animal is a dog--just because they truly can be your best friend and are so intuitive, though I will say I have been blessed with an amazing dog during my childhood and now an equally amazing dog during adulthood. Thanks again for such great content! Hope you're having a wonderful day!

    Here is a super fun idea. Go to the paint store and get colored paint strips. All colors. Don't try to plan what colors might be on your hike adventure just get every color there is. Each child grabs a color and goes looking for a plant or article in nature that matches their color. They then draw it and put it in their journal. So amazing how easy it is to find the colors.

    My favorite animal is a barn owl, which I was inspired by the book series The Guardians of Ga'hoole that I started reading in middle school and enjoyed for many years. And actually, I think Kennedy and Shelby might be in a perfect age range for them and really love them. I was a little older (8th grade) but I always enjoyed reading a little easier than my grade level even though I did well in school, and I see them listed as 8-12 years old. I feel like your kids have probably seen the movie- I almost remember it being in a vlog, but that might be my mind playing tricks on me.

Also check out Faber-Castell watercolor pencils, my oldest loves them.
