Nature Study: Cobwebs & Spiders

I never thought my girls would enjoy studying cobwebs and spiders as much as they did.  In fact, they call me outdoors frequently as they discover a new cobweb in our yard.

 

The majority of the cobwebs we found were the Orb Web.

Our hostas had a lot of Sheet Webs or Funnel Webs.

The girls picked their favorite cobweb type to complete their Outdoor Hour Challenge.

I found some great resources to add to our studies.
