The wonder and excitement of experiencing life through a child's eyes is a magical thing. On this occasion the kids woke up to icicles out side of Nana's house and you can see in their eyes that they are amazed by them. The wonder of how did they get there? where are they going? and a million questions running in their mind was shown by their simple awe. I love the "why..." and "how come..." questions that children ask. Their desire to touch, look and really experience life as it is happening around them. These simple icicles brought about a ton of questions each leading to a different hypothesis and conversation. We were able to watch them grow and melt, look up facts and talk about the cycles of water. Nature is by far the best classroom for science and that wonderful curiosity they have is the very best teacher.
