Danny recently conducted his first research project (in kindergarten no less) and it was such a neat experience. He had to randomly draw the name of an ocean creature and he got "lobsters"! Then for the next couple weeks his teachers and volunteers, like myself, would take turns reading each student books and they had to fill out reports about facts, etc. As a fun twist, Jimmy and I decided to take Danny on a special date just the three of us to Fish Bites for their lobster special night. He and I got their early and while posing next to the live tank one the waitresses asked if he wanted to hold one! He refused to try the cooked lobster (which meant more for me), but he had shrimp that he loved instead!
Lastly, they had to create a 3D representation of their creature and present their findings "science fair" style to parents and their peers. Crew and Kingston are out of preschool now, so they were in tow as well. Thank the lord for Pinterest! After we completed this thing, Danny pointed out that lobsters are only red when cooked (duh mom), but alas I found a couple varieties that are red/orange when alive, so we still good.
