Discovering Skeletons

First thing this morning the doctor's surgery was back in full swing.

I printed out some x-rays for further exploration and play.

The Boy and I talked about our five senses and he used his sense of sight to draw things he could see under a magnifying glass.  We noticed that a leaf had little brown dots so...

...we used a microscope and realised the little brown dots were...

tiny weeny insects!

Tracing and labelling a skeleton.

After our trip to the library our neighbour came round for a cup of tea and a visit to the doctor.

This evening, after hail and a huge downpour, the sun has come out - perfect for my two eldest to go boating on the lakes.
