Little Aussie Boots

I bought these boots for my son little Mr. C. shortly after arriving in Tasmania. Being a rapid growing 4 yr. old he had out grown them with-in a few short months. I couldn't quite bring myself to throw them away. Too many momories of our first few months in Tasmania. I have to say that they are a great design for easy on-off footware for kids.

It just so happened that the Tas. Botanical Gardens was offering a kids class yesterday called Plant your Boots. I sent both kids with one boot each and this is what they created. They learned all about succulants including the latin terms for some of their plant (Sandy will be proud). We might even start a shoe collection just for planting.
