<br />
"Forest Fun!" That's right; Trail Troupers has decided to focus this walk on teaching "fun" facts about the forest. We will be learning a wide range of information, from the foams produced by Spit Bugs to a plant nicknamed Moustache and Beard, to exciting games like squirrel tag and bird's nest. We have designed all the activities to fit 5-10 year-old children, but all is welcome!<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Please meet us at 33rd Avenue and Camosun Street at 10am sharp on June 21st for a morning full of fun. If you are interested in attending the walk or for more info, please email us at pspyouth@gmail.com .<br />
<br />
PS- <i>Did you know??</i> Spittle Bugs use plant juice to produce foamy material. Scientists are still debating the reason for the behaviour, but it is common notion that the foam hides them from predators' eyes. Also, some research has been done to show that they prefer humid environment for growth and survival. After all, nothing is more humid than a bath of bubbles all around you!<br />

We did a variety of activities, including determining the diversity of colours in the forest, collaborating on a group art project, and pulling on the inspiration of the forest by doing some poetry and drawing. This was the first walk where we used art, rather than science alone, to stimulate some different styles of learning within the group. We hope that we have sparked curiosity about the forest in a new way.<br />
<br />

This month's leader Kassandra Yau took a few photos during the walk:</div>

Unfortunately, many parents were not able to locate the trail and were unable to attend. That is why we have decided to lead another walk with a similar theme.<br />
<br />
Are you interested in teaching your children about nature? Would you like to attend a Family Event for FREE on a weekend? Trail Troupers is hosting its next nature walk on May17th at the intersection of 16th Avenue and Acadia Road. Meet us at 10am for a fun hour-long walk. This walk is intended for families with children aged 3-12 years old.<br />

<br />
Trail Troupers' next nature walk will be held on the upcoming Saturday (Apr. 19th, 2014) at 10am. This walk will be particularly interesting since we will be using art, rather than science alone, to stimulate different learning styles within the group. We will talk about forest litter and decomposition and will make a collaborative group art project by the end of the walk.<br />
<br />
This month's leader is Kassandra Yau from Prince of Wales Secondary School. We hope to spark curiosity about the forest in a different way in this walk! We would love to see old and new faces so please make some time to attend the walk.<br />
<br />
Take a look at the poster below for more information:<br />

<br />
We are back from our January's break and will hold the next nature walk on<i> Saturday February 22nd at 10am</i>. During this walk we will be learning about our five senses and how to become more aware of our environment. We will be meeting at the intersection between Camosun Street and 29th Avenue, and will then be going through the Saint George's trail. Please dress warm and come ready to go!<br />

This year's November walk was a great success. Over 20 children showed up to the event with their parents, much more than we had predicted due to the cold weather. Yet our leader Nadine Chan competently took charge and made this a fun and memorable walk for everyone. Niusha Mj has kindly taken a few photos to capture the day. See any familiar faces?</div>
