Having previously expressed what wonderful summer days we were having, today it poured and poured with rain!
What a better day then, to observe some snails…
Having observed them closely, and observed them eating, I remembered a little activity I saw at Filth Wizardry – ‘snail painting’!
Perhaps it’s not exactly PC, but just a tiny amount of food colouring in water, and dipping the snails in them just slightly, made for a long (and very slow) observation…
Alfie just loved this activity – actually just really loved the snails – so much that he even held one…
…. and got quite upset when we let them free!
