Today is the first day of spring, and when we visited the Missouri Botanical Garden last week, there were already hints of spring popping up!

Early Spring at the Garden
Today, we took a field trip to the Botanical Garden. We’re finishing up our science curriculum for the year, which has focused on botany, and the last chapter is about keeping a nature journal. We decided to take our sketchbooks out and capture the crocuses, but we were pleased to see a lot of other new growth, as well!
We decided after our visit today to make it our goal to visit the garden once a month this spring…we don’t want to miss out on any of the beautiful flowers!
