Mold Grow & Show / Yuck Party!!

make sure to check out the chicken feet near the bottom of this page

 

Yesterday, we all brought the mold we had been growing to the park to show each other - our Grow & Show.  After sharing, we presented the kids with various "gross" things.  Some things were to eat and some things were to touch.

   

                  molted tarantula skin (exoskeleton)                                               earthworms         

        

             holding a baby octopus                                         they actually were very cool

     

             eating ticks & blood (raisins in ketchup)                             eating moldy cheese (blue cheese)

    

      this is what happens after eating baby food                                              chicken feet!!

The chicken feet turned out to be the big hit of the party.

When you pull on the tendons, the toes move!!!!

This was our Grow & Show display.  We saw yucky molded bread, lemons, hamburgers, apples, cheese, onions, oranges, etc. 

It was interesting to see the difference between preservative free bread vs. grocery store bread after 3 weeks of growing time!  No more grocery store bread for us!
