Science Without Doing Science

Last night, the girls went Fire Fly hunting.... They looked up on the web, what FireFlies Eat and found out they eat flower parts and pollen....They also found out that Fireflies are not flies at all. They are a type of beetle!

This A.M. one of the fire flies had died in the jar.

Alli and Sarah conducted a very nice funeral and buried him in the yard.

 Then it was time to look for other wonders in the ground.....

 They found grub worms, (bad) and earth worms (good)

 They also got some more pollen for the other flies.

 Alli ran out to daddy for a morning hug.

 Then they found a little toad.

 I thought he was pretty neat....  I love how excited they were to find simple pleasures right underneath their feet; the things we naturally do not notice...... God's creation is truly wonderful. :)
