Friday- the first day of Summer Vacation!

The Hermit Crabs are all being lazy today. This morning I let them crawl on my hand and Shy Guy pinched me, but it didn't hurt.

This afternoon mom got on the Internet and we looked up websites that told us how to care for them. Then mom made us a calendar that tells us when to feed and water them- Savannah and I are going to take turns. We decided that we will journal in our new journals that mom got us just for this project, every Thursday night before bedtime and mom will post them on Friday mornings so that all our classmates can see how Speedy, Pincher and Shy Guy are doing.

We are really having fun learning about how to take care of them and taking pictures of them!

The First Days of Summer Vacation

The Hermit Crabs arrived at our house on Thursday afternoon on May 27, 2009. We placed their tank on our desk in our bedroom because they would be out of the sun there and we can see them from any spot in our bedroom.
It was quite in our house because Savannah was still at school practicing for her kindergarten graduation and Daddy was still at his office working, so it was just Mommy and me (Robyn).
After a little while Shy Guy came out of his shell and began to crawl around the tank. The others- Pincher and Speedy were being lazy. I took them all out of the tank and placed them all on my purple shag rug in my bedroom floor- and they all came out and started crawling around it. I think they liked the rug cause it is thick. Then I had to put them back to go to Kindergarten Graduation at school.
When we got home that night late, they were already asleep. So we went to bed too so we wouldn't wake them up. Today was the last day of school so tomorrow we will be able to play with them all day. Hurray- Summer Vacation has began!!
