Science Day

We’re still on the learning curve on home school and how it works for our family, but one thing ALWAYS works for Jr:  SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS

One day we took a break from doing our other lessons and did a day of Science.  The pictures are from Fizzing and Foaming Experiment

The last picture cracks me up because he was going on and on about how good it smelled and begged me to smell it.  I did and it smelled… vinegary.  lol  I guess the boy loves vinegar!  ;)  He’s so funny. hehe

Space Magnets

Tuesday is when we do Art projects (along with other subjects, of course) and we finished up our Space Magnets today!  They turned out so cool!  The coolest part?  We finished them with glow-in-the-dark sealer.  Can’t wait to try them out tomorrow!

He made all of the planets, some comets, a wormhole and, of course, The Death Star.  He had fun making them, but he said the part that was most fun about it is I was asking him Space Questions while we worked.  So cute.  I mean, cool.  Very, very cool.

Christmas Vacation, Part V

The Finale of our Christmas Vacation series.  I call this one Jo:Anthropologie  ::  Jr:LEGO store 

We both had that moment of not being able to wait to get in the store… of forgetting about everything and everyone else and heading for the heavenly glow of the wonderfulness inside.  

 

We were only there for a short amount of time, considering the hype around actually getting to go, but it was all worth it.

As you can see we also were able to meet up with friends, Tim and Lori and their family.  They were in from Iowa and we were in from Texas at the same time.  How awesome is that?!  dt hadn’t seen them in over 10 years and they are dear friends of his.  Although, I’m sure he wouldn’t say it like that.  He’d say, “I love Tim and Lori!” and what’s not to love? They are de-lightful!  To be said like this guy: Thanks for meeting up with us, guys!
