It's been a while since we posted a new question, but we're making up for lost time today.
By the way, in response to the occasional person who has suggested that we Google an answer, I'd just like to point out that a large part of the fun and of the value of this blog is the interactive nature. Also, although answers may be readily available online, they are not always aimed at an eight-year-old.
To get today's ball rolling, Colin wants to know what happens to ants in the winter. His theory is that adult ants just die in the snow, but the larvae stay in the ground until spring.

Here's a good site that explains what happens.

Well, last winter one of my aunts worked, one went to India and one went to visit her mother in Vancouver. I suspect other than travelling, they did regular things like buy groceries, get haircuts and read Macleans...
Colin's aunt did all those things as well as went to the Bahamas, hung some new wallpaper and took a course in Business Management.

Wallpaper?!?!? Ants are obviously not so smart.
Colin does, by the way, have another a(u)nt ;)
