Do any of them travel along the same path? Why do you think this was the case? When it reaches the edge of the paper, choose a different mealworm and repeat the activity with a different color crayon.
Start a mealworm in the center of a piece of paper.How quickly does it go through the maze the first time? The second time? Additional trials? Why? Did anything surprise your child? What? Encourage your children to make observations with their senses and include those in their science journals or in the printable mealworm journal and put food at one end. Take them out and let your kids handle them and watch them move. When you first get your mealworms home, observe them. We ordered a large box because we were sharing ours with kids in the homeschool elementary science class I teach at our co-op. Head to your local pet store, and grab a tub of mealworms today – or get them online like we did. Studying mealworms gives kids a chance to observe, care for, and experiment with living creatures in a hands-on way. They’re low-maintenance, and the perfect introduction to lifecycles for young scientists.
