Throughout the summer the kids and I will be doing some cool science-y experiments. Here are a few that we have done so far... this day we did the classic baking soda and vinager! Plus, we made gak (aka slime.)
|
No matter what age they are.. boys like things that explode! lol. |
|
They got creative and added food coloring! |
|
The swirl of different "explosions" in Kody's foil pan! |
|
After a while, we flipped to complete a "lunar/mars" landscape.
We placed a generous layer of baking soda
and they dropped food coloring and vineager to create the crators. |
|
Some of them. |
After the baking soda and vineager we moved on to gak! Or slime. After making it, the played with this for hours... and even a few times over the next 3-4 days.
|
Kody mixing her GAK! She kept saying it isn't right.
To which Peter-Leo would respond... you have to keep mixing it! |
|
Peter-Leo having a blast with his GAK! |
|
He even discovered that it could be blown up like a balloon!!
|
Honestly, the next three photos should be up with the rest but Blogger is being rude and not doing what I want it too... so here they are..
|
Peter-Leo was impatient with the lunar landscaping..
so he took his tray outside and flooded it with the vineager! |
|
This is Kody very carefully dropping the vineager onto the baking soda. |
|
This is what happened to Kody very pretty lunar landscape once Peter-Leo
convinced her to dump a cup full of vineager onto it. Don't worry, she was still happy!
|
Well, that was one day... stay tuned for more!
Tag! You're It!
