Chicken school. It's been easy to do school lately. The kids and I are thoroughly enjoying our subject. Learning through real life and Montessori style teaching really appeal to me and the kids. The chickens have provided us with many lessons. Cutting grass small enough for chickens . . . our lawn mower is broken so I suggested they continue with this exercise.
Here are two early birds on a scavenger hunt for bugs. Some nice pincher grasps going on.

I love the jammies with boots. This girl has no problem getting dirty and touching slimys.

Here we are gently getting eggs clean. The princes and handsome man had great team work during this. And not even one broken egg! These are from our friends chickens, our girls are not old enough yet.

Only with very clean hands and for the sake of learning this is how we scrambled our breakfast. They actually liked it. This chicken thing as been fun for us all.
