Un-school day

(sunday at the museum)

Questicon

Where we looked at many areas of science-
from Illusion, light and sound to Carnival science. My favorite part was the measurement section where you could try to esitmate 15 seconds (I was only off by .7 sec) and arrange tikis by several subjective and objective measures.

The young scientists wish to pursue making a marble roller coaster, and I'd like us to play with pendulums and try to make a clock!

The museum shop offered a great selection of science kits. The prices, a little high, but I have lots to think about for experiments.

We ate dinner on the grass across from the museum, within sight of the aboriginal sorry monument, which the kids remembered from our walk.

At home, Left to their own devices, this evening the kids have been creating.

Woven strips of paper and accordion beads.

Oops, we're learning. ;)
