Theme Tuesday: Drowning Bee & Insects
Beetle
Summer is here and the farm is all abuzz with insects.We're taking a close look at Bee's this week and one just happened to fall in a water bucket and become a science study. The kids painstakingly tried to figure out what she needed in attempts to save her;
various species of flowers, a drip of honey, water, shade, sun to dry out her wings.
All efforts failed, but we kept her for our studies as the week goes on.
