Baby Chicks....

Regan's class hatched baby chicks this month. They got fertilized eggs and incubated them for several weeks and were able to observe them throughout the process. They got to shine lights on the eggs and see the little chicks growing. Then, after about 3 weeks they got to watch the chicks break out of the shells. This was a very neat experience for Regan. She really enjoyed it. Then, last Thursday they got to hold the chicks and play with them. Riley, Reece and I also got to join in the fun. The chicks were so cute and very active and everyone got to hold them minus Riley b/c she did not want to get chick pee or poo on her cast. ;) One of the chicks did poo on Reece's hand and she is still talking about it. She is also wondering where the chicks went because they are no longer in Regan's classroom. The teachers gave them to a family in our school that owns a farm. I have to keep telling Reece this over and over again and to reassure her that they are in good hands.
