Puddlestompers Nature Exploration

Elias: Are we going to the Nature Center? (Also: Is the Nature Center School?)
Mommy: Yes, we are going today. Do you want to go?
Elias: Yes, let’s go now! [goes to find his shoes without more prompting from me]
We referred to the twin’s weekly hours with Puddlestompers as going to the Nature Center since it was held there at Newton’s Nanhanton Park. The Nature Center was the twin’s favorite activity. They had consistently high praise for teacher Emily Rothman. Sadly, now that their fall classes are over, I’m sure I’ll be hearing a lot of pleas to go to the Nature Center and see Emily, and questions about where is Emily’s house and is she sleeping now. So let me give my thanks to Emily for her enthusiasm and hard work.
Misc: My own tip to avoid excessive driving when dropping off kids at Nanhanton Park Nature Center: During the fall the weather was warm enough that I waited for the kids in a canvas folding chair with my laptop; with rain or cold weather I could walk/​drive to Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology (a 2 minute walk, Wells Ave) which has free parking and a café that is open to the public.
