Nesting

Bunny has heard us throw around the word "nesting" over the last couple of weeks.

Getting ready for Miss Mouse to make her arrival has felt very last minute.

 Summer daycare kept us busy and we are just now really getting things done.

The other day, after asking what it meant to be nesting and being told it was like how a mama bird gets a nest ready for her eggs ... just like we are getting our home ready for babysister,

 Bunny decided to do some nesting of her own.

She stuck with the bird idea.

Little sister helped, of course!

She gathered sticks and twigs and leaves and dry grass from around the yard,

She asked for a little help with the basic forming,

Then she added her own touches.

We looked in some books for reference.

(That was my addition to what was otherwise completely her own idea.)

Then off she went to leave the nest for some lucky birds to find next spring.

Unschooling at it finest, if you ask me.

Each week I join several linky parties! What a fun way to share and learn!
