The Brave One

I've gotten rather used to people being pretty skittish around the crickets we have in the store.
It's probably due to us currently leaving the lid off our large cricket container.
As it's been getting too humid within the confines there, with how many crickets we're currently getting in. And so we've left the lid off to try and keep the crickets alive.

So people, who realize that the lid is off the crickets....tend to back away rather quickly from that area. Afraid that the crickets will jump out at them. Which, with how deep the container is...is rather impossible. lol.

In any case.
Having gotten used to people shying away from the podium.
It was rather surprising to have a little girl march right up to the crickets, and stick her hand in within -since the lid was still off.
And then pull it back up for me to see a single cricket perched on her finger so she could look at it.
Lol. She showed no fear whatsoever, seemed rather taken by the cricket in all actuality. lol.

I later decided she's one of those 'tactile' learners. Who has to basically 'touch' everything in order to understand it. Because she would touch the water the fish were in, the containers the crickets go in, the nets, basically anything she could reach, she would touch at least once.

I was kinda glad for her to leave in the end. It was just a bit too much for her to constantly be everywhere trying to touch everything. :S
