There is a very special house at 228 Maple Drive with tons of stuffies in their windows. I think little kids will love it! Let us know what you find!</div>

This student made video captures what many children are feeling. They are bored! So why not get outside and go on the Los Alamos Safari Hunt! Anabel Irving and Maya Snowden collaborated virtually to create the video. The girls are students at Aspen School and are members of the Natural Helpers service club.Michele Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03874438842627059915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274967395831029166.post-71071989677290546622020-04-24T20:26:00.005-06:002020-04-25T13:10:05.642-06:00Garden Flags!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Guess what? We have a clue! Piglet and Roo were spotted on Los Pueblos Street near a little free library. Can you find them? Good luck spotters!</div>

We were pleased to spot seven animals! You actually might need binoculars if you go on a hunt. Otherwise you may miss a tiny bear in a second story window. It was fun on a beautiful New Mexican day - and we didn't even have a child with us!</span>Michele Ahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03874438842627059915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274967395831029166.post-59251588083070752672020-04-10T18:35:00.002-06:002020-04-19T15:33:21.761-06:00Everyone Can Participate!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 16.8667px;">It’s a Safari! The Los Alamos Safari Hunt for Kids! This activity is similar to a scavenger hunt. The “hunters” try to spot as many stuffed animals as they can find in people’s windows and yards. Everyone can help by placing stuffed animals in their windows, which will make it fun for our children. If a window is not possible, placing one in a yard or on a fence will work too! If you’re not scared of the wild, check it out! </span></div>

<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Spotters on the hunt should wear a protective mask, remember to stay at least 6 feet away from anyone else you meet on the safari.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Spotters on the hunt should remain on the sidewalk and a safe distance away from the animal’s homes.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Spotters on the hunt may want to make a map of their neighborhood and take a pencil to draw their route and discoveries. Other may want to use a phone app.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Do you notice how quiet it is? What are some new sights and sounds that you notice? Do you hear the birds?</span></li>
