She once sustained a black eye while fleeing from an enraged river otter. Cohen now lives in Seattle\, and works as a freelance writer. She likes to hike\, grow food\, read\, and play complex board games\, especially Wingspan.  \n\n\n\nABOUT Curious Kids Nature Journal  \n\n\n\nOrganized by ecosystem\, this journal encourages kids to use their senses to explore nature and make observations in their own backyards and beyond. Over 100 color and scientifically accurate illustrations help kids more easily look for and identify plants and animals\, as well as natural phenomena\, such as animal tracks and nurse logs. Writing\, drawing\, and activity prompts inspire kids to record and track their observations.  \n\n\n\nPROGRAM DETAILS       \n\n\n\nAccessibility notes: This program requires moving at a moderate pace with moderate inclines on some uneven surfaces around Lost Lagoon (such as gravel and pavement) for up to 1 hour. If you have any questions about accessibility\, please email Anna at publiced@stanleyparkecology.ca      \n\n\n\n      \n\n\n\nThis program will meet at the Nature House on Lost Lagoon (located near the intersection of Alberni and Chilco Street\, underneath the viewing platform) and proceed to Cathedral Trail.

If you must cancel\, please let us know if you need a refund or if you are able to help us offer affordable programs for the public by donating your registration fee. (This is one way we can all subsidize programs in this changing economic climate and ensure these programs are available on a sliding scale.)           \n\n\n\n       \n\n\n\nWe gratefully acknowledge that the land on which we gather and help steward is the unceded and traditional territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam)\, Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) Nation\, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nation. Since time immemorial\, Coast Salish peoples have lived reciprocally with the land\, harvesting and cultivating foods and medicines and practicing ceremony. The abundance of these lands and waters\, which enables us to live\, work\, and play here today\, is a result of the past and on-going stewardship and advocacy of the Coast Salish peoples.
