Penguins, Penguins, Penguins...

We are studying penguins in our Scholastic preschool curriculum for two weeks. This week we learned about how penguins have waxy feathers that keep them dry. The kids colored their own penguins with crayons, cut them out and experimented with spraying them with water. They were amazed at how the penguin stayed dry even though they sprayed it with water because the crayons are waxy like the penguins feathers. We are also reading books about penguins. Fun!
