Our Nature Escapade this week

Well we started out on the hunt for some spider webs so we could freeze them on some paper. It is a little project I found online that I knew the kids would enjoy. You take some black cardstock holding it behind a spider web while you spray with aerosol hairspray. The spider web sticks and there you have it! Sounded really neat. Sadly, due to the rain and wind we didn't find any. So our hunt for webs turned into a hunt for mushrooms! We find alot none on the ground but a ton on the trees. We found so many colorful ones and it is really funny I noticed that I could have went for a walk about a year ago and I never would have noticed. I don't know if they would have noticed either but we do now and that is all that matters! Of course we took a ton of pictures! That of course we wanna share with anyone who will look!

The kids had zero interset in trying to identify them.

They just thought they were really cool to look at LOL.

To see more pics of nature and our week 7 of school check out the pic album. They have so much fun going out and exploring. The funny thing is the nature area we usually go to is behind a park and they rarely ever ask to actually go to the park. They are more concerned with what they are going to find that day. What are they going to see and what can they bring home! Fox really wanted to bring home a tree, I said that probally wasn't gonna happen and not to mention we have about a dozen in our yard anyway. They also like to look for covered holes in the ground and wonder what could maybe be living in there? Fox and me have also started a game with each other called Where are we? We were at Walmart the other day pretending we were in the artic. You should have seen the guy in frozen food when Fox loudly stated Mom look out theres a polar bear. The dude actually looked. Never a dull day with these guys!
