DIP NETTING WITH OUR HOMESCHOOL GROUP

We recently had another great opportunity to go dip netting! This time BOTH my boys participated! The water was a bit high but thankfully the guide "Ginger" took the kids a bit further out where it was shallow. The kids had a blessed and what a great hands on learning experience!

The kids collected all kinds of great critters: fish, tadpoles, shrimp, spiders, etc!

  3. Oh, what fun you guys are having! My son keeps asking to go fishing and we haven't gone yet. We'll have to go to the farmstead nearby soon!

    I'm also sending you a virtual bag on my blog from Elmer's Bag It Forward. This ends 9/10 at 12a EST! Hope you can participate.

  4. How fun! I think my daughter would love to do this. My older son would probably refuse at all costs! He is not a fan of water.
