Today's Science Lesson

Ever trace your shadow and then go back later to see how your shadow has changed? We did that today and the kids thought it was neat. The sun has been bright and beautiful the last couple of days. So much so that Greyson got a little pink on his head yesterday and Madelyn got some sun on her legs today. Looks like the sunblock needs to be entered back into our daily routine.

While we were waiting for the sun to move, Madelyn was playing a mean game of hopscotch. It so nice to have another "room" to play in!


I was also excited to get started on the strawberry patch today. I tilled it up to get it ready for planting, hopefully tomorrow or Sunday. I know that we won't get any strawberries this year but they will ready to go for next year! Yea!!

LOVE the shadows! I think Greyson likes his shovel better, though. ;-)

what a good idea. and what a good mommy you are. steve mailed the package back to you yesterday (friday) since he was really the one who stole it in the first place. hope you enjoy your strawberries when they come in!

Cool science experiment! Its good to see those kids being exposed to this stuff. Good job Mom!

By the way, I think you went a little heavy on Greyson's sunblock in the first picture! HA!
