Monday...

No morning meeting.

Looked up "the big one" for P.  He wanted to see a picture of the biggest wave ever!

Lots of Davy Jones and Black Beard playing,

J spent some time on-line independently searching pictures of Lego Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Black Pearl,

P built a ship,

P ~ "Mama, why did the captain of the Titanic turn this way towards the iceberg, instead of turning that way?  Maybe this way was a shortcut, and he didn't know the iceberg was there.",

Wild Kratts (earthworms),

lots and lots of "WHY?" questions ~ Why are sails and flags made out of that kind of material?  Why are boats made out of wood?  Why does metal sink?  Does plastic float?  Why is it lighter than water?  Why does this rubber duckie float if rubber sinks?  So... this all led to a little experiment:

Does it sink or does it float?  Everyone got involved!  A few of the things they tried were ~ plastic sucker paper, plastic dish, leaf, rubber duckie, screw, crayon, wood, rubber band and tape, just to name a few :)

Then, while peeling potatoes for supper tonight, I came across this potato:

Hahah.... too funny!  The kids all got a kick out of the potato fish!  It even had an "eye" on the other side :)

The day wrapped up with K going to a Little Women meeting.  S went with us this time, and  played with her friend from Little Flowers!  It's been a wonderful day, and I'm looking forward to tomorrows adventures!
