A Jungle Walk...Go Diego Go

Brayden went on a "jungle" walk today set up by one of the most creative mother's in our playgroup, Sarah. The "jungle" is the woods by Sarah's house that used to be part of a camp, so there was a trail that they kids could follow. Sarah bought the kids safari hats and the kids went into the jungle to help Dora find her backpack.
Brayden was super excited to go on the jungle walk and see all the animals (as he said) but when we first entered the jungle, Brayden was a little scared and wanted Mommy to hold him. We came up to the first animal (Sarah had blow up animals placed all over the woods with little treats for the kids) and Brayden got really excited to see the animal so he decided that he could get down and walk like a big boy but he still wanted to hold Mommy's hand.
Brayden picked all sorts of treats but he was most excited about his butterfly/bug net and his bug box. After we found Dora's purple backpack, we brought the backpack back to Sarah's house, where Dora was waiting to greet us with snacks and juice.
We had such a good time and it was so nice to spend some quality time with my little man. Cami hung out at home with her Mum...remember that is grandma for the rest of you. Brayden was so excited to come home and show Mum all his goodies that he collected in his Diego rescue pack, which we brought along from home and which he wore the whole time! Thanks Sarah for putting so much time and effort into this event. We had a fantastic time...we can't wait to see what you cook up next.
