Science Experiment

Kate had a brilliant idea to set up some time this summer for her to watch my kiddos and for me to watch hers. We decided I would be on duty on Tuesday and she would have Thursdays. 

I thought this was a wonderful way to have some structure during the summer months.  To have some fun, I came up with a few "learning opportunities" for the kids. 

The first was a Science Experiment using the garden. They each claimed a squash plant. We measured them, made a hypothesis about what color it would be and decided to take a picture each week to watch the plants grown. Here's the first day of the expieremnt. I wonder how big these little plants will eventually be!


After our project, we cooled off with a popcicle. It has been a relatively cool May but today was hot and the popsicles were very refreshing!
