This morning, a group of friends took our letter to Magnolia to get some more info from the worm experts. We came back and shared with the rest of the friends that worms like to eat watermelon, cantaloupe, eggs, lettuce, and bananas; but citrus fruit like oranges make them sick! Turns out we had cantaloupe for lunch today so of course we saved some for our wormy friends! We also found out that worms are composters. "We have a compost bin on the playscape! So like you put stuff in the compost bin like a banana peel, then it turns to dirt!"
We also asked, "Where did you get the worms?"
They shared that they bought worms to start. The more food you give a worm, the more worms you get! The mommy worms laid eggs. "Like mommies have babies then they come out!"
