Picnic at the Botanical Gardens

Today our unit went to a picnic at the Georgeson Botanical Garden on the University of Fairbanks campus. The weather was kind of sprinkly, but the kids still had a great time running around. We had a very serious talk before arriving, about how these were not wildflowers and these were not OUR flowers and how we were not under any circumstances allowed to touch these flowers :) I am proud to say that Kate only brought me one flower and she was quick to tell me that she found it on the ground.
