Homeschooling in Illinois

The Shedd Aquarium

On a whim, we decided to go to the Shedd Aquarium.  My hubby was off Monday, and it was discount day.  The special exhibit they currently have is Lizards and the Komodo King.  Awhile ago, we won a free e-book about komodo dragons by Melissa that the kids really enjoyed.  That got them really interested in the komodo dragon. 

 

(D has such a goofy look on his face... not quite sure why)

 

 

 

Did you see the claws on that thing??

 

Princess C was really fascinated by the dolphin show (which in my opinion was extremely boring).

 

(she is so funny!)

Cool pics of the Komodo Dragon! Aren't they awesome creatures? Thanks for the additional plug for my book too:) But mainly I am just tickled that the book got your children interested in this amazing animal and then that they got to see one close up.

About Me

Oh, the crazy things that happen in my house.... I am the wife of M for 7 years now. I am the mother of a 9 yo boy - D, 6 yo boy - N, 3 yo girl - Princess C, 2 yo boy -Toddler B, and girl Lil' L born May 18. I've been homeschooling since 2003. I lean towards a Charlotte Mason approach, but more often than not, it's "whatever works".
