Madelyn's homework today was for me to ask her some questions about mealworms and for her to tell me all about them.
Me: Tell me about the life cycle of a mealworm.
Madelyn: First, they start as an egg, then a larva, and then a pupa. Then, they turn into a beetle. Mealworms molt, too!
Me: What is molting?
Madelyn: It's when they shed their skin as they grow! Humans do it, too!
Me: And so do snakes.
Madelyn, in shock: What?! Really?! That is so cool!
