Happy Palindrome Day!


Today is a rare and numerically special day! Today is a palindromic date in standard American (mmddyyyy) format: 01-02-2010, expressed backwards as a date is precisely 01-02-2010!
But palindromes are not just about numbers, there are many words, sentences, and even phrases that are palindromes. How about the words, Mom and Dad?

In honor of Palindrome day here is a paindrome worksheet.

What Palindromes can you think of?

Egg Cam


Did you know?
An egg shell may have as many as 17,000 tiny pores over its surface.
The average laying hen lays 257 eggs a year.
A hen needs just 24 to 26 hours to produce an egg. Thirty minutes later, she starts all over again.
Sometimes a hen will lay a double-yolked egg. It is rare, but not unusual, for a young hen to produce an egg with no yolk at all.
And did you know that you can watch baby chicks hatch right here?
