Grubs, Beetles, and Hissing Cockroaches...O My

Well, seeing the visitors at Big Bro's co-op class gave me the same sort of feeling I got when the scorpion came for the day...eek!!!

Today's visitors included hissing cockroaches, grubs, and beetles.

Not just a little tank of creepy* crawlies...an ENTIRE BABY SWIMMING POOL of them!

*Creepy, but of course, interesting...

All of the children were taught how to correctly handle them and how to examine them.

Mr. Doug graciously offered for a grub and a hissing cockroach to come to our house, but I said that I thought that they should stay with their families!

Luckily, Big Bro thought that it was better that they stay with their families, because "they would be lonely without their families."

Mr. Doug also dressed up as an inventor today, although Big Bro was so taken by the crawly creatures that he could not even remember who Mr. Doug was impersonating.

Big Bro did retain all of the facts about the visitors, though...he just loves this class!

I helped out in Little Bro's art class for co-op today.
We did some stamping work.
The kids enjoyed stamping a variety of pictures.

Stamping pictures of nature is more my speed...

Hissing cockroaches that are the size of mice - not so much!

All in all, another great day at co-op! No photos, though...

Forgot to bring my iPhone in from the van...oops!
