About the Instructor

Hello, I’m Alma.

I’m a first generation immigrant from the Philippines currently living on occupied lands of the Duwamish Tribe and Coast Salish people, also called Seattle. I identify as Filipino-American and I use she/her pronouns.

I love being close to nature and creating art.

As a child growing up on the island of Oahu, I often came home (my mom says) from trips to the beach or woods with my pockets bulging with rocks, sticks, shells, and other natural items. I learned how to find edible fruits in the woods and edible seaweeds on the beach. My father grew both an edible and ornamental garden as I do today. As an elementary school teacher, I conducted classes in the school garden, took my students on walks in the woods and on the beach, taught them to keep a nature journal, and painted along-side my students during art class. As a now 20+ resident of the Pacific Northwest, I spend much of my time on our beaches and in the woods. I nature journal in the field and bring my experiences home as inspiration into my art.

Pricey otherwise enjoyable
Color: Red
Ball is made of a durable type material kinda like a foam only not chewable, at least not yet Very entertaining and has a whining noise, it does bounce a little bit and moves somewhat when nudged by dog. Bouncy. Not a very high bounce so it keeps close to ground. The ball was fully charged when it arrived and has entertained her for about an hour now that she has settled down so it did what I hoped it would do, to keep herself busy to the point of being tired. At best I would not leave this lying around for heavy chewing use only for entertainment or play time.

Mostly Good toy. Could be great.
Color: Blue
The ball looks well made and the dog absolutely loves it. He can't stop playing with it. It's awsome to see. The only problem, abd it's a big one, is that we can't open the ball to turn it off. The two halves are stuck together and don't budge. I'll wait until battery dies and try then.

Entertaining
Color: Blue
This smart ball is a great toy for your dog. It’s the perfect size for most dogs and it’s made of durable material that chewing doesn’t hurt. It’s easy to charge and will run for hours. It’s very quiet and has 3 modes of play to choose from, rolling, bouncing or a combination of both to keep them (and you) entertained for hours.

Color: Blue, Color: Blue
I bought this interactive ball for my dog, and it has been an excellent purchase. He loves playing with it because it moves and bounces on its own, keeping him entertained for a long time. It feels durable, is easy to charge, and is of very high quality. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a fun, long-lasting toy for their pets.

My dog absolutely loves this interactive ball! The material feels durable and stands up well to chewing. The bouncing and moving action keeps my dog entertained and active for long periods of time. It’s also easy to recharge and the size is perfect for medium to large dogs. So far, it has worked great and seems built to last. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and engaging toy for their pet! 🐶🐾
