aquatic trivia


I love how these places that we frequent continue to change for these two. Today we dropped by the SeaLife Aquarium adjacent to Legoland for an hour. They've done this trivia card in the past, but it's always been more of the adults doing the work while they just run from one exhibit to another. And they were out of the trivia cards when we visited with Grandma last month so the kids were very happy to see the trivia cards today. Thomas and Meredith really didn't pay much attention to the exhibits today at all. Instead they were totally focused on the trivia and enjoyed seeking them out. Thomas would read the question and (3) possible answers and then together they'd decide which one was correct. It was fun to watch them work together and to be so into it today. And it was esp. fun for me to listen as Thomas read all the questions and answers himself. It's amazing how quickly these reading skills develop!

* Meredith had so much fun that when I tucked her into tonight she asked if we could go again after school tomorrow.
