My name is Sam. This morning, I found an app on my phone that lets you turn selfies into 3D cartoons. The App is called Voila. Here are some of the people at Seeds that I took. The post is occasionally updated.

Nature is something I’m fascinated by because it is all around us and I want to explore it by hiking and admiring it. I would love to see the Redwood National Forest in California one day 🔜. I have been in Sedona and crossed a creek on a log twice! Nature is so peaceful. These are pictures I took outside in Nature.

Many People thought 3 cameras were useless and had no ‘purpose’.  But what they never did, was do research on what theses cameras do. So my suggestion is to look up videos or articles online and you’ll realize why the name of the iPhone has the word ‘Pro’ on it. It doesn’t just apply to Apple products, but it also applies to other things like restaurants or theme parks.

Wombat
By Chris M.
This little furry critter is called a Wombat. It’s an adorably short-legged quadrupedal, or four-legged, mammal that is native to Australia.
Australia is the only continent that’s home to the Wombat.
These little vombatidae members belong to a family of Australian animals called Marsupials, like the Kangaroo and the Koala.
If you think a Wombat is too stubby to move around quickly, then you haven’t seen them running away from you. Their speed can reach maximum when threatened. But if they can’t escape, they can curl up into a furry ball. What is fascinating is that wombats have  super solid behinds that protect them from predators, like Dingos.
Unfortunately, not even a protective behind can save a wombat from getting hit by a car. Many wombats get killed when crossing busy roads, with lots of cars going from left to right. In fact, more wombats are killed by cars along with any other animal unfortunate enough to cross a busy road.
But there will be hope. Many conservationists in Australia are rescuing wombat babies that could’ve died inside their dead mums’ pouches. Then they get released back into the wild when they’re old enough.
I do volunteer work at the AZ Humane Society where we rescue many pets and care for them until they are ready for adoptions. So I feel relieved that there are many people out there who care for these animals.

TOOLS
Stone adze(top) and hatchet(bottom)
 Most primitive tools were made out of either wood, stone, flint, bone, or obsidian. Stone tools helped early humans to gain the power of farming, mining and so much more. With mining came the Bronze Age and with it, new technology.

THE BRONZE AGE
By mixing tin and copper together, people created an alloy called bronze. It was stronger and more flexible than copper or gold and didn’t rust. With the creation of bronze though, man could now effectively wage war against each other.
When everybody had bronze weapons people realized that they needed something to protect themselves with, so they made armor, shields and polearms.

People on the autism spectrum often exhibit an intense focus on a particular area of interest. These affections may change over time, yet the level of enthusiasm remains the same. At SEEDs for Autism, we recognize that these passionate hobbies offer a level of comfort and stability to these unique individuals. From there, we can introduce new ideas and challenges to help our participants GROW. Daniel loves the animals of Africa, and during the creation of this blog post, he confidently stepped outside of his comfort zone. Apart from performing the technical skills of online research, typing, uploading images, adding categories and finding appropriate tags, Daniel opened his mind and imagined what he would say to these beloved animals.
