For "Oo" week we have started watching a mother Barred Owl. She is sitting on two eggs. We will continue to observe her as she keeps her eggs warm. We are looking forward to seeing the owlets! It will be in about a month. You can watch at home too https://www.allaboutbirds.org/cams/barred-owls/

We asked many questions. Here are a few:

"How do the babies get food when they are in the eggshell?

"Why does she need to stay on the eggs? Why can't they get cold?"

"Why do they turn their head around?"

We read this book to try and find some of the answers to our questions.

Bread Painting! Because we are continuing with all things food, we have been taking turns painting on bread. We have enjoyed it very much and if you want to do it at home - here's how we do it!

Step One - Put three tablespoons of water in a cup.

Step Two - Add three drops of food colouring.

Step Three - mix well.

Step Four - Start Painting!

Beautiful!
