🌳Thank you so much to the Outdoor Discovery Center at Crooked Creek for hosting our Storytime with an awesome story hike on the You Can Trail! We enjoyed the beautiful trail while listening to The True and Lucky Life Of A Turtle. The Storytime friends then decorated their own turtle craft. What a great spring Storytime!
