As we were looking for bugs to feed Tuck, Charlie found a pill bug (Woodlouse) hatching babies from her brood pouch.
He placed it in my hand and they began crawling all over.
I then put them on the light table with some magnifying glasses and the kids came up with this super-magnifyer.
After we watched them for a while, we took them to the garden, since the mom stays with her babies.

No way! That’s very cool! The pill bug, the babies AND the super magnifier!
