I Spy Game – River Wilderness
Kids, don’t you wish your parents were, you know, more curious! Take them outside into your neighbor and try this game:
I spy is a guessing game where one player chooses an object within sight and announces to the other players that “I spy with my little eye something beginning with…”, naming the first letter of the object. There is much to see in River Wilderness! Let’s take a look! Take a parent and let’s go explore!
- Theme: Explore the local neighborhood and discover interesting places or things.
- Items to look for: A fire hydrant, a mailbox, a tree, etc.
Sun Coast – I Spy
Here on the Sun Coast—yes, that’s what our slice of Florida is nicknamed for its year-round sunshine—you’ll find more than a home. You’ll find a lifestyle!
You probably live in River Wilderness if you are reading this post. It’s not just a place where grown-ups play golf or go boating — it’s a place full of fun, nature, and sunshine just for YOU! We live on the Sun Coast of Florida. That means we get more sunshine than almost anywhere else! That’s why people come here from all over the country to play, explore, and maybe even move in. Florida is fun, it has nicknames for its different coasts — like secret names for places on the coast!
