Just the other day, the kids and I dabbled in a little color mixing with a...might I say...super easy, "I actually have all the supplies on hand and don't have to go to the store" kind of science project.
We followed the simple directions.
Crossed our fingers.
Waited the appropriate 24 hours. ("Waited" is a relative term here. "Stared anxiously at the three jars of ever-changing liquids and watched the clock like time-keeping Nazis" is a more accurate description. But, you get the idea.)
Then, we stood back in wonder when it actually worked!
In case you're wondering...
this brief little story...the one in which I get to wear the Super Homeschool Mom cape in front of my kids for a brief nano-second for having helped them with the oh-so-successful science project...was brought to you by PINTEREST!
Yep. Pinterest.
And more accurately, one of these ten fantastic boards.

What about the science experiment?? Are you going to post about it soon? I'd love to see what it was :)
ReplyDeleteWendy, I often post pics of our science experiments on Facebook, but forget to write about them here. I'll have to remember to do that.
