Science is Cool!

I am in love with our local library!  They have all sorts of fun activities for toddlers and preschoolers. One such program is their Explore! science program. Since the boys seem to have a fascination with science and Tim now has a work at home job that requires him to be on the phone for almost 8 hours a day, a couple weeks ago, I decided to take the boys to the library for a science lesson.

The theme for the day was weather.  The boys were able to see (kind of) how rain clouds filled up with water and to make the cotton ball rain clouds rain onto a tray. This was Elijah's favorite experiment.  He wanted nothing to do with the second experiment.



Beniah's favorite experiment involved a glass of water with shaving cream on top, a medicine dropper, and colored water.


It was supposed to show how rain fell from the clouds.

It was so cool, that we had to show Daddy after he got off of work that night.




The boys enjoyed learning about rainy weather. I (unfortunately) learned that I am too far along in my pregnancy to have the energy to take the boys to the science class at the library and be able to do my regular Mama jobs afterwards.  Oh well, we head back to the library for more science fun after Isaac is born.
