Studying Rocks

We have been trying to examine the rocks we have on our nature shelf.
I don't know a lot about the different types so it can be a little frustrating teaching how to classify rocks.
We only examined the rocks and noted color, texture and shape.
Rocks are really beautiful examined up close with a magnifying glass...some of the rocks were multi-colored, multi-layered, sparkly and even covered with moss.
It was our little rascal man's first nature walk

searching for rocks around the house

Miss LouLou's rocks

always life under a rock...pill bugs...worms...crickets

always time for climbing a tree
time to examine our rocks
And most important...What does the Bible say about a rock?

Tent Fun...

Oh what fun to have a sister to camp with...in a tent made of blankets...with a pile of books to read
this tent kept everyone busy on the cold days this winter
