My kids newest fascination is with the many baby common toads that bounce through the yard. They love to catch them and build them alternative homes. At first they were just putting them in a bucket with water. Colby wanted to learn more about them so got out his reptile and amphibian field guide and found common toad. He discovered that they don't live in the water, just like to get wet sometimes. So they turned a wash tub into half sand and half water. As a homeschool mom, I think this is a great learning opportunity! Of course they are kids and would just as much play with them as learn about them.
