In the background I have cotton representing clouds, a sun, and oil pastels as the color of the sky. For the mountains I put crushed cocoa bursts as rocks, and white out on the top of them like snow, the two big mountains are made of paper bags but the smaller ones are made of plain paper.

Around the river I put fake moss, colored it with oil pastels, and I also put green foam to hold some trees. 1. What is the TEMPERATURE RANGE?
