Any time you can find a way to bring a cute, furry animal to school, it’s going to be a hit.

So, our son created his science fair project entirely around bringing ‘Smalls’ to school. Smalls (as you may have guessed, she’s our littlest lamb) is an orphan and the project was to determine whether a ewe with triplets is more likely to reject a lamb than ewes with twins and singles.
Above are the results. Pretty interesting! But now to get Smalls from the ‘nursery’ and bring her to school.

Kayla helped round her up and drove to school with Smalls on her lap. Who can resist a lamb?
Kayla did a lot of explaining about the lambing process and answered a ton of questions. My personal favorite: ‘Is this, like, your PERSONAL lamb?’.
Everyone got a chance to hold Smalls and then it was time to get back to the farm and to class.
