Science is Fun!!!

This afternoon we had a impromptu science experiment. Avery and Chris were reading a magic school bus book about volcano's(i think), so he(Chris) suggested that they go make their own volcano. Avery was adamant that she wanted nothing to do with it, because we found out, she thought that it was going to explode out all over the place and that made her a little nervous about the whole thing. When she saw that it was fun, she was a willing party again. Not the school science fair kind of volcano, as you can see. He got out the baking soda and my industrial jug of vinegar and started adding and pouring into a glass. The taller and thinner the better. The kids loved it!!! Way to go Daddy!

yeah, i thought about the food coloring mom, but i did not want to deal with any stains or mess. So i never mentioned it!

I was just thinking the same thing about the food coloring. I thought it would make it more exciting for both the kids and Leslie only in very different ways!
