Hatching an egg...

Brother went to a birthday party and in the favor bag were a couple dissoluble/melting "eggs".
We've never done them before and were very excited.
Brother dropped it into the glass of water and watched for something to happen.We discussed what animal might hatch out. Brother was sure it would be a dinosaur.Patience is not a well-developed virtue in this house.
After a long time (about 20 minutes) the boys began poking at it.
They were sure it was broken.Finally (an hour later) it finished hatching!
Brother guessed it was a pterodactyl. It was actually a goose.Brother decided it was just a goose-like dinosaur.
Whatever makes you happy, right? What lesson did we learn? We don't have enough patience for hatching eggs, but the boys are sure cute when they're impatient. (;
