Some of my Favorite Educational Things

There are SO many things that are educational out there that I thought I’d share a few of my favorite!
Ripley’s Believe it or Not!– I LOVE Ripley’s! We can’t go on vacation somewhere, find out there’s a Ripley’s and not go. I love reading all the wild and crazy facts, seeing all the amazing feat accomplished, and all the weird and gross facts about science. So far I’ve been to Ripley’s in Orlando, St. Augustine, and Niagara Falls. Here are a few pictures at Ripley’s in Niagara Falls we took this summer.

Do It Yourself Kits- As a child I LOVED do it yourself kits- whether they were ant farm kits, excavating dinosaur bones, grow space crystal, make a clock kit, any type of hands on kits! Here are some neat kits I have either loved doing or found online that looked neat!

Nature Trails- Another thing I LOVE is nature trails & hiking! There is SO much information on a simple nature path that you can teach children and enjoy. We’ve seen deer, snakes, armadillos, butterflies, toads, ants, spiders, swamps, creeks, caves, birds, plants, flowers, berries, nests, alligators, and SO much more.
