What Are You Looking At? (if you are squeamish you may find one picture a little yech)

Sometimes during daycare I'm struck by the fact that I just said something I have never even thought, much less spoken, ever before like 

"Now Atlas, share your worms!" (because they all helped him collect them:)

 

The girls tried to show their worms by holding them between their fingers but 'Squirmy' wiggled much too much!!! 

I wish I could show you a play-by-play of one of them trying to keep hold of her worm!

 

Hunting for more 'treasure'

Janet: What are you looking at?

Them; A slug!!

What are you looking at, dear little child

Tell me what do you see?

A slug, a bug, a wiggly worm,

A cricket, a bumble bee

What are you chasing, sweet curious child?

With a leap and a dash and a crawl

A tiny tree toad, a butterfly

A beetle, an ant s-o-o small

What have you found, my pretty child

What are you looking at?

*A caterpillar, *a spider, a fly,

Now what do you think of that?

 *They learned that it does not work to fight over/tug-of-war with a caterpillar lol!!!

*Last week we watched a spider roll a fly in her web
