New Hermit Crabs




Well, sadly, one of the original hermit crabs recently died. Because we have been doing ongoing research about our classroom pets the children knew that hermit crabs (despite their name) really like to be with other hermit crabs. I've had worried little faces saying to me almost every day, "Did you get a new companion for Sandy YET? You know they need company!"

So this past weekend, I bought two little guys. Brainstorming perfect names has been a raging topic of conversation since Monday. Today, however, I'm proud to introduce to you:

Shelly (the second, and still counting)
and Ellie!

Much more interesting than the usual guinea pig or turtle I've seen in schools
