It's fascinating to imagine how very different the world used to be. I found some fossils while camping in landlocked Montana, too.

I think learning sticks so much better when you can really experience what you are learning. And has alot to do with learning styles.

Exactly! All a child needs is an engaged parent and access to the world around them. Kudos to you for providing both!

I could not agree with you more!
Earthschooling... I like that!
My kids (and I!) would love to find a fossil site like this, what a wonderful experience!

Thank you everyone for visiting and leaving comments :) I wish I could arrange a field trip for us all to go fossil hunting! My kids want to go again now. Anyone near Minneapolis? It was only about 1.45 hours from MN.
