Eyeballs
It's been three months since we posted anything, so I'm not going to try to catch up in one post. As I sat down to look through pictures to add, I came across these from August. Emi plans the best family activities. Here we are at the home of our friends (the husband happens to be her eye doctor) dissecting cow eyes. Emi asked our butcher for some, so she came home with 6 eyeballs. Then she asked the doctor if he would teach us about eyes and lead us through dissecting them. Before we went over she found a virtual dissection activity online so each of our kids learned the parts of the eye and practiced first. It was great, and only one of our kids licked the eye she was dissecting (so smooth and tempting, how could she resist?)

Has any of your kids tried to pluck an eye out of one of your chickens yet?
ReplyDeleteLOVE these pictures. What a fun and disgusting thing to do. I loved that in fifth grade...don't think I could do it now:) Love the video. Can't believe how much David has grown!
ReplyDeleteThat comment was for the eyeball activity. We made applesauce this weekend too. Love it. I had the thought halfway through that Lou was going to get a burning splash on her hand. Sure enough:) It's worth it though. Helping is so fun. Ephraim was my most consistent helper with the applesauce. Probably turned half of it:)
ReplyDeleteYikes. I could never do the eyeball thing.
