It is the summer of science! Nora spent a good chunk of her allowance this year on science kits. So far we’ve done kitchen science, clean water science and we’ve been keeping a weather log since we arrived. Pretty cool stuff!
Water Filter
Kai and Nora pose with their 4-stage water filter kit. On the left is mud, sand and oil (extra-virgin). On the right is the filtered water. Still has some silt but oil was completely removed.
Nora the scientist
Hypothesizing.
Weekend nap
Crystal takes a weekend nap. Weekday naps are impossible on account of the construction.
Kai the scientist
Nora with her equipment
Here she is with her weather station and her solar water heater. We didn't get the heater going until later in the day so we didn't hit the 104F that we need to consider it a success.
With the terrarium
We have some of Grandma Ellen's spider plantlings in a home made terrarium.
Goofy
Kai shows off his hard pretzel discus form.
