Still working on our summer check list. Axel got this book last year for Christmas. We had a goal of getting through some science experiments this summer. Of course here we are during the last week of summer trying to start! Axel picked out 3 to try this week.

| Shining pennies |
1st experiment- A Penny for Your Thoughts. Learned a little bit about acid and bases. And in the end got to get some pennies shiny.
2nd experiment- Rainbow Burts. Learned about molecules and their effects on each other. I was cool to see the food coloring separate in the milk.
3rd experiment- Self- Inflating balloons. Learned about yeast how it rises and carbon dioxide.
Of course all the cool science information was in the book and had all the directions written out for us. Well we didn't get to do the whole book this summer but at least we tried a few. Science is fun!
Now I've been catching Axel 'doing science' for the last few days. He loves mixing things together to see what happens- like soap, toothpaste, or any thing that is sitting out in he bathroom. I've created a monster! :)
