The eggs we used were laid by the chickens at our friends house where we were staying over the weekend & the boys got to feed the chickens & collect the eggs all by themselves. They loved it!
Over the same weekend I was reading the *amazing* book' A Montessori Mother' (more to come on this wonderful book or look it up on Google Reader if you can't wait :) and reading about the importance of the children being responsible for the welfare of animals and plants. Fascinating stuff.
But. back to the eggs...
I miss my chickens so much! I loved getting the eggs and having my little farm. It is such a wonderful experience. I will have to check out that book you were talking about. :)
