Science Project...

Ethan is finishing up Kindergarten. He has a science project due on Tuesday the day after memorial day. He was able to pick out what subject he wanted. He picked North American Snakes, and of those snakes he picked the Rattlesnake.


I have a wonderful color printer at work so I printed lots of pictures of Rattlesnakes. There are 16 different types. I had no idea there was so many.


So on my way home I called Ethan to tell him I printed the pictures and we will work on the project this weekend. He said...and I quote..."I have to bring a rattlesnake to school for my project". I kept my cool and thought about what in the world should I say. Knowing that rattlesnakes are very poisonous. So I said "honey where are you going to get a rattlesnake?" he said "the pet store". I had to laugh. Then I told him I don't think that is a good idea. He didn't like me saying that and was very insistant that he must bring a rattlesnake to school.


I think I have finally got Ethan to understand that he cannot bring a real rattlesnake to school.
