Nature's Way Preschool

Building on our post from yesterday, we've got  some more wonderful but "be careful" creatures to learn about! For today's Wild Wednesday , look below to learn how to identify venomous spiders and snakes  that can be found in Central Texas . Remember that these creatures have important roles in their habitats and that they just want to be left alone. We hope that these descriptions help you feel empowered as you explore! 

We have had wonderful weather in Central Texas lately, which hopefully has inspired you to explore outside! However, we must remember that we're sharing space with many kinds of wildlife, some of which might cause harm if you get too close.  For today's Teaching Tuesday , let's learn about some nature neighbors you might spot that need plenty of space! Use this handy infographic to teach children how to identify potentially dangerous arthropods and plants. Tomorrow we will share another safety post with snakes and spiders!

In this week's Teaching Tuesday , we will take a look at some more wonderful species that require a bit of caution if you encounter them. Use the graphic below to get to know some venomous spiders and snakes that can be found in Austin. 

Now that spring is upon us and we are spending increasingly more time outside, we must remember that we might be entering the home of many kinds of wildlife!  For today's Teaching Tuesday , use the graphic below to learn about some local flora and fauna who require a bit of extra space while exploring.
