Looking for some screen-free, summer activities? Try this one Sea Lions and families.
Go on a Nature Walk!
Nature Rubbings: Bring along a few pieces of paper and some large crayons with the wrappers peeled off. Show them how to place a leaf or a piece of tree bark under the paper and rub the crayon over it to see the texture appear.
Sticky Nature Palette: Wrap a piece of wide painter's tape or masking tape around their wrist like a bracelet, sticky side facing out. As you walk around the picnic area, they can stick small fallen items—like tiny leaves, petals, or clover—onto their bracelet to make a "nature painting."
Enjoy!

Welcome to Summer! We'd love to post some at-home ideas for you and your Sea Lion.

This summer is all about trying new things, making happy memories, spending time together, and having fun away from screens.

Here is our first week's installment. Enjoy!

HAVE AN OUTDOOR PICNIC

"Bear Hunt" Teddy Bear Picnic: Have your preschooler bring along their favorite stuffed animal. Before eating, hide the stuffed animals around the picnic area (behind a tree, under a bench) and go on a "bear hunt" to find them.
Red Light, Green Light: A classic game that is perfect for burning off energy in a big grassy field before sitting down to eat.
Cloud Shaping: Lay flat on your backs on the picnic blanket, look up at the sky, and take turns pointing out what shapes, animals, or objects the clouds look like. This is great for vocabulary building and imagination.
