Explora Fun

Jackson and Jeremiah participated in another hands-on interesting Homeschool Science Club class called:

Density: Liquid Layers (Grades 4–5)
The students explored density, which is the property of matter that determines whether objects float or sink. Students compared the densities of salt solutions and a variety of liquids, and made a submarine that both sank and floated.

During that time, Jenna and I decided to take advantage of the warm, sunny day and play outside on Explora's playground. While Jenna played with her friends, Quinn and Skye, I chatted with some fellow homeschool friends, Sharon and Laura, too.

On the way inside Explora, Jenna likes to stop and check out the distortion mirrors. Our distorted images always make her giggle.


Outside walking over the 'bridge'. She still likes me to hold her hand going across, no matter if it's a foot high, or just a few inches. I'm glad that she still needs me around.

After we came home, Jeremiah felt like trying out some more science experiments with the Young Scientist's Kits we received from Aunt Aeri and Uncle Skip for Christmas.
Here's Jeremiah writing out a chart to keep record of the various results from the Static Electricity experiments.
