We discussed the layers of the Earth today, using a nectarine as a model and coloring the layers on a worksheet. After disbanding and heading outside for some playtime in this gorgeous summerllike weather, the kids began putting their newfound knowledge to use as they dug a giant hole in our as-yet unplanted garden.
"We're digging down to the mantle, Mommy," Maddie informed me.
"Oh, really," I said. "Just be careful that you don't create a volcano."
"Never mind, I'm not going with her," Maddie returned quickly, pointing at Angie who was still wielding her shovel.
