worm hunt

where is spring?! since we can't hit the playground, beach or zoo - we thought we'd go on a hunt for some little friends who love this rainy weather....worms!

 

ella & bennett each made a little worm paradise in these mason jars and then we headed down to the river for our hunt. and let me tell you, we hit the jackpot - worms, caterpillars and a slug! wondering if i get some sort of cool mom award for picking up the slug and letting it squirm in my hands? maybe?! ha!

  

  

we talked about how the worms are good for the soil - so we'll be bringing these squirmy friends up to our new garden plot later today.
