Fall is an amazing time at Little Lambs, especially for learning science! Cool weather, shorter days and falling leaves make way for many different and unique learning experiences. Children learn so much from just observing and playing in the world around them. For example, playing in the leaves leads to a conversation about why they change color, why they fall off the trees each fall and what happens to the leaves that we don’t clean up (great food for our spring soil) Bees behaving strangely opens up a dialogue about what changes animals and insects go through each fall, who has to get ready to hibernate and who is active all winter long. Ask your children about our Monarch release, where she is going and when she will get there (hint: she is headed for warmer weather and we may be eating turkey) Our little lambs love science even if they don't realize it yet.
