Tuesday Tips: Earth Day 2014

We are short on time today as we have been enjoying some outside time…I will leave you with a couple of links…

One is to the blog post from Nature Kids Institute where they fill in the details on their Nature Connection Pyramid.  Ever since I saw this, we are striving to spend more time outdoors.  I really am looking forward to being up in the Rim Country again this summer so that we can take advantage of the National Park Service areas and do some hiking.
