Mom! There is sand in my shoes!

The sciences could not exist without each other. There is no biology without physics, no chemistry without biology, no biology without geology, etc. Today for Locryn’s “biology” lesson, we leaned toward the geology realm. While playing in his sandbox, we discussed sand!

Sand is formed when rocks are broken down (toddler speak: smushed!) over thousands to millions of years! Sand can be made of many different grain sizes and many different colors! The most common sand colors found are white, brown, tan, cream, red, grey or black. Sand feels gritty in our hands. It ends up everywhere (like in our shoes)!

ENJOY!
