Today we took the leaves we collected at the lake yesterday and did a leaf chromatology project. One of my favorite things about school at home is having the freedom to find cool projects to match MiniM.E.'s interests, or experiments that are relevant to the season. This experiment I found on Pinterest and seemed really cool, until I realized (after we were knee deep and I searched for someone else's take on the experiment for clarification) that it really
should have been done in the summer. Oh well, lesson learned. Always check for someone else's take. And no big deal because it was still a cool project and MiniM.E. isn't quite old enough to grasp the science behind the whole thing anyway.
Later we met our friends for our annual Sunnyside Garden trip. We always go together at least once a year and take the obligatory wagon photo.
For the last four years we've added a kid to the group. We need a bigger wagon!
