Sweet, Yummy Rocks


Last week the boys and I made a cake. We decorated it with chocolates that looked like rocks. Why did we do that? We studied rocks, why else? Okay, maybe that has no real value in learning about rocks- except possibly to teach my 2yo that its okay to eat rocks. But it was fun and raised interest in the older two boys.


After we made the cake, the boys decided they were worn out.



We really did study rocks. 6yo was so excited about matching the rocks from our kit with a book we have.

We had been collecting rocks to study when we got to it. We kept them all together in a spot outside, but I didn't want to dig them out from under all the snow! We'll be able to do it soon since its all melting away. YEAH!
