Why are kids so fascinated by volcanoes?

I mentioned yesterday that Princess has a thing for Mount Vesuvius, and we were very lucky to have gone to see the Pompeii exhibition at thne Melbourne Museum last year, which included a great short 3D film about the eruption of Vesuvius. We were a bit worried about it before it began, but she really enjoyed it. She wan’t very interested in most of the exhibition but was really taken with the body casts (“I want to see the dead people, Mummy.”) which we had seen photos of previously.

Even earlier this week we were playing doctors and we had a problem in getting the right food and medicine for the patient because there had been a volcano that had wiped out the shops in the town. The doctor had to ring the next town to get the things delivered.

Maybe she had been tuning in to the events on the news, or maybe she just loves volcanoes.

2. What a horrible way to die! 1. Reminds me of Holland. I was there about 10 years ago and heard that the canals haven’t frozen since 1960.

Thanks for pointing out my broken link. I played Wordless Wed yesterday and wondered why hardly anyone visited. It was broken there as well.

Nice information. I will link your blog in my other website which is http://mapeh.org. I could use some of your information for my lessons.

I hope that you will also link me up.
