Spring Break with Lisa

Because this week is Spring Break, but Lisa still planned to come for tutoring, she came up with lots of projects to keep the boys busy during the time she was here.

They made stained glass window cookies.Sugar cookies with rock/hard candy broken into bits and sprinkled on.





They made a "battery" stacking different coins in a certain order with lemon juice soaked paper towel between them. when you held them between your fingers you could feel the reaction, it heated up and was tingly.





They made homemade ice cream and talked about why you need salt and ice to make it work.




And this one scares me a little.
They swabbed my house and put them in petri dishes. We will see what grows!
Watch for an update on that!
