Eggs

Today we took part in the most awsome home ed wildlife group, it happens every second friday and the theme today was eggs.

Starting with a group discussion about all the creatures that hatched from eggs.

What a fantastic prop selection, have you ever seen a plastic snail before?

Followed by a demo of different sorts of edible eggs.

Hen eggs.

Duck eggs.

Goose eggs.

Quails eggs.

frogs eggs.

and fish eggs.

A discussion of the construction of the egg.

and a very hands on investigation.

Then outside to make rubber eggs.  

once the shell has been removed you can carry out other experiments on the eggs.

Then back inside to blow eggs, something I had always wanted to know how to do.

And to paint and decorate them.

And a video of the development of fish eggs.
