When I was a little girl, we would find some species or other of chestnut like this in the little woods on our school grounds at recess and make them our "pets." I remember elaborate stories we invented about the transformations that would occur when their spiky layers started to dry and peel open.

These are so particularly bright & urchin-y!

Im my case, we had a regrettable tendency to weaponise plant matter. I remember folding sand inside catalpa leaves to make "hand grenades" that could be thrown against a tree trunk, where they'd explode in a cloud of dust.
