It's school time again! Hooray! My younger set (grades 3-5th) expressed interest in unusual animals the other day, so I made a bit of an overview study for them to enjoy the first two weeks of school. We are doing Chemistry/Physics this year as our main science focus, but I don't want nature study to take a backseat. There will be a few of these types of studies thrown in throughout the year. These are short little studies, perfect to do in those short bits of free time in between other activities.

There's very few authentic pictures of blobfish. Here they are in an album. Click the right side of the picture to move to the next one. I couldn't find an authentic video clip of a blobfish in it's habitat.
