Toddlers, Tunes and Turtles at Smith Park

Smith Park had an event called Toddlers, Tunes and Turtles one day after work! We got there a bit early so went to the playground to play, then headed to the gymnasium for the activities. We sat down and watched the Turtle Guy talk about his turtles. Maddie was really great and sat and listened the whole time. He passed around little turtles in plastic containers with water, and brought out a lot of larger turtles which he put on the blanket in front of him.  At the end of his presentation, he let all the kids come up and touch the turtle shells and even the live turtles! Maddie got to touch a smaller live turtle, she patted it lightly on its shell.

Later on a musician started to sing and play guitar on the other side of the gymnasium so we made our way over there. Maddie perked up when she recognized a song she knew!  

We didn't stick around for the entire evening as it was getting close to dinner time but it was nice to get out of the house and enjoy what our parks programs have to offer.
