It's summer so it must be time for WATERMELON! Did you know that watermelon is a vegetable? It is a cousin to cucumbers, squash and pumpkins. Did you know that the largest known watermelon was grown in Tennessee and weighed 262 pounds? At the National Watermelon Promotion Board's website, you can find all things watermelon, from recipes to how to select a watermelon, a Kids' Activities section, and even lesson plans for educators. Be sure to check out the photos of carved watermelons. It's amazing what you can do with a sharp knife, a watermelon and a little time on your hands.
Bembo's Zoo This is a good one to share with younger children or grandchild. Or maybe just for your inner play-baby. The designer has managed to create a menagerie of animals using only letters and punctuation marks. Very creative and fun.
And for those of us who just need to get away, if only in our minds, consider a free mini-vacation at Fabulous Nature. Breathtaking photos. Stay as long as you like.
That's it for now. Hope you enjoy these websites.
