Going for a Spring Walk...Checking out the newly blossomed trees and nature

We are headed off for our walk. We are in search of newly blossomed trees and signs of Spring.

 The kids really liked this tree

 Checking out purple flowers growing in the grass

 Smelling the blossoms

 This tree drops seeds that look like snakes

 The kids were pretty fascinated by it and scared at the same time. It really looked like there were snakes on the ground. 

 Some of the kids were not afraid to pick them up

 When we arrived back to preschool we spotted a bunny in the yard

What a fun walk. The kids can't wait to go on another one again!
