Professor Noggins Facts

After creating our post for National Bird Day I thought it would be great to share with any readers enjoying our homeschool blog how valuable and unique the information is found on each card. Every school day for this semester we will be playing our Professor Noggins games and we will share one interesting fact each time on this posting. 

From the Birds of North America game Barron found that the American Kestrel is not a songbird nor a shorebird, but is a bird of prey. I discovered that the white-breasted nuthatch is one of the only birds that can walk down a tree trunk upside down. Learnt on January 7th, 2025.


From the Inspects and Spiders game Barron found that ladybugs have wings and are sometimes called ladybirds. I thought mosquitoes were interesting because they can be dangerous to humans because they spread diseases. Learnt on January 8th, 2025.
The Insects and Spiders game had Barron learning about caterpillars and the fact that they spend most of their time eating, however we thought it would have been turning into a butterfly. I learnt that woodlice are also known as a sowbug and a pillbug. Learnt on January 9th, 2025.
