We were certainly happy to see each other on Thursday!
And we were especially happy to explore our new book, Ferdinand the Bull.
The book took us to the countryside in Spain where a young bull named Ferdinand was born. He was different than the other bulls in that he enjoyed laying under a cork tree and smelling the flowers, while the other bulls butted heads and chased each other.
When Ferdinand is a two year old bull he is mistakenly chosen to compete in a bullfight! This proves to be a complete disaster for all involved. We loved this story! Ask your kids to retell it to you. Maybe they will even act it out.
After we learned a few facts about the country of Spain, (instead of a tooth fairy they have a mouse that comes and exchanges your teeth for treasures!) we talked about bullfighting.
But we didn't just talk about it, we went outside and DID it! (To a certain degree.)
Here are some pics of a few of our ferocious bulls and courageous matadors.
Next week we will discuss our olfactory system! And see what we can identify with just our nose.
