With a little help from local Girl Guides!!! We teach our youth a lot about animals. Not only is it important for their safety as we spend so much time outdoors, it’s important for the animals too! Kids get a lot of confidence and self-esteem knowing what to do to help animals! Here’s an easy one to teach! We use a stuffed Turtle named “Canada” for these lessons, but any stuffed turtle will do!
