Today’s family fun activity is to take a nature hike around your neighborhood.
A nature hike is great physical activity for the whole family, and a way to have an enjoyable experience at the same time. As you walk, collect leaves that have fallen from a few different types of trees, and when you get home, you can identify the types of Maryland trees in your neighborhood based on the shape of their leaves.
