an inch worm twirl in mid air?
a katydid clean its legs?
a spider catch and eat a grasshopper on its 'stair' web?

"Children should be encouraged to watch, patiently and quietly, until they learn something of the habits and history of bee, ant, wasp, spider, hairy caterpillar, dragon-fly, and whatever of larger growth comes in their way. 'The creatures never have any habits while I am looking!' a little girl in some story-book is made to complain; but that was her fault; the bright keen eyes with which children are blest were made to see, and see into, the doings of creatures too small for the unaided observation of older people." - Charlotte Mason 1.57 Have you ever watched a wasp digging a hole?

the education we are giving exceeds all that we intended or imagined.”
