Sometimes I like to bring books to explorastory that have really fun artwork in them, and sometimes I like the books that have will get everyone really excited about reading.  A book that does both came to us recently, and it’s called Scoot! by Cynthia Falwell.  There’s lots of activity by the sunny pond, but for the most part, the six silent turtles sit still as stones. 

Then we read What Do You See When You Shut Your Eyes?  There were lots more rhymes and sounds repeated, and it was really fun to try each exercise.  What do you see when you look really close?  We used magnifying glasses for that.  What do you yell when you yell really loud?  What do you see when you go to bed? 

We made some different things.  A few people just wanted to experiment with the magnifying glasses and some other stuff from the science bucket, like the marbles and lightbulbs.  Most people made what they could see when their eyes were closed.  Take a look at the green girl with white hair and an angel in the clouds.
