Science Day

The local library is hosting science camp on Wednesdays throughout the month of July. Best of all it is free! Since Trev is into all things science I have been taking him each week. So far I think his favorite thing has been painting/drawing with shaving cream. The staff had put a large board on the grass and filled it with shaving cream. Leave it to Trevor to start body surfing! He was covered from head to toe! Luckily he had decide to wear his Captain America costume so he at least had clean clothes underneath.

We have learned that if poke holes in a bag of water with pencils it will not leak out as long as those pencils stay in place. Another favorite of his, as he has been demonstrating this to a lot of people. We have planted sunflower seeds, set up dominoes and watched the chain reaction when one falls over, learned what objects sink or float, drawn with chalk and many more things.

It has been a great learning experience for him. Too bad it ends next week. We will have to look for more fun activities for him to do.
