Kaiden's class has been learning about the ocean and ocean animals for the last month.
The kids have been taking care of a pool full of goldfish in the classroom and yesterday, they all brought a goldfish home!
See, they did give you the option of bringing a fish home.
You could send the little paper back with your child's name on it and the little "No" box checked.
Guess what kind of parent we would have been
How many kids' parents said no to the little slimy things that the kids have been feeding with so much enthusiasm every morning after calendar
A big fat ZERO!
We couldn't be THOSE parents who said no
Can you imagine little Snowball's face if she was the only one without a fish?
So, we said yes
After a trip to Petsmart for the essentials in keeping a goldfish, our free little fish has turned into a $50 endeavor.
We had to get him a tank, food, a little friend, a toy and bright, neon plants to make him feel at home
I'm just hoping these little $0.13 fish last longer than the weekend
and a big Thank You goes out to the teachers who thought up this wonderful unit
