Serious Science

MiniM.E.'s request for a science unit this fall was space, so we have been conducting a lot of "out of this world" experiments.

My favorite so far has been the human sun dial. Since it hasn't rained in forever, we can still go out and estimate the time!

We explored why Mercury is so covered in craters:

Melted some chocolate "rocks" on our "hot as Venus" fire pit (it has been awfully hot!)

Marbled some shaving cream for Jupiter mono-prints:



And explored why Saturn (and the other outer planets) have rings:


In between experiments the girls are just trying to stay cool!
