Depending on where you are, for parents, looking for wildlife might be a safety precaution. But for kids, it's one of the best parts of being outdoors. Together, you can point out birds, butterflies, or insects you see, and look for evidence of what may have been there: burrowing holes from gophers, voles, or chipmunks; bird holes in rocks and tree trunks; tracks in the mud from raccoons; and small nests.
