Reptiles ROCK!

Since we found the cool looking praying mantis we've been looking at zoo animals and learning about reptiles. We really like the chameleon! There are all different kinds and sizes too! Some look like DINOSAURS!!


The Jackson Chameleon reminds us of the Triceratops with the three horns on their head...

or the Brookesia Chameleons that are the size of a fingernail!

Chameleons can even change their color depending on how they feel! They will use dark colors when they are mad and can be light colors when they are trying to find a girlfriend! Boys are usually more colorful than the girls. Silly boys!!



We especially like this guy because he has pinks and purples, our favorite colors!

We also like the blue and green iguana's!

Mommy even found some cool blogs for us to read about reptiles like "reptiles rawr". We can't wait to learn more about them! Some of them come from a place called Madagascar (also the title of our favorite movie!) an island off the coast of Africa. We really want to learn more about Madagascar and all the cool animals that live there!
