Turtle Class!

Dylan and I went to our local zoo for a class on tortoises today. It was fun - we first went to the classroom where the kids made turtles out of paper plates. Dylan glued and colored on his turtle's shell. Then the teacher read a story about turtles. After that, we went to see real turtles. We met a small pancake turtle and a larger tortoise as well. The kids attempted to feed him carrots, and he wasn't overly interested. But the turtles wandered around and the kids got to pet their backs and feet.
