Sunday was party day for Hannah. The whole class was at Az's 7th birthday and the party was hosted by Carmelo the Science Fellow (no, I'm not kidding). All the children handled various creepy-crawlies and hairy critters, and did lots of experiments including this one where I think the blue powder is supposed to turn white. Hannah came home with a party bag full of gooey stuff that sticks to the furniture, more blue powder that might turn white one day, and a thing that looks like a centipede, called a mealworm. Great! We are promised that if we feed this worm-thing with oats and apple it will turn into a proper beetle. Fantastic! I guess we are going to have to name it - any ideas?
