Science camp

I had to take a shot of my two babes sleeping. So sweet. The two big girls have been at science camp all this week. They come home everyday with their latest invention. One day they made blue slime which they found great uses for.........

Lulu can't participate in the camp yet, but she tries out all the inventions at home.

The uses for slime are endless!

Today was the last day of camp and parents were invited the last hour to see the showcase of inventions. Izzy and Sophia stand in front of some tunnel system for their bouncy balls that they made.

Sophia's contraption. Now you might think this is "junk" or recycling. It is made from recycling products but the girls were quick to assure us that these precious items are indeed inventions. I can't wait to see how Auntie Lisa packs up Sophia's invention for the plane ride home.

Izzy's invention.

This is the area where the girls made bouncy balls. Pretty cool stuff.

I think they used this polymer snow to make the bouncy balls. It sounded very technical.

I asked if they wanted their "inventions" to go into the recycling when we got home, but the girls spread it out in the playroom to make more inventions.

They also had to take apart electronics to explore how things are made and how they work.

We did send them with Grandpa's remote control helicopter.....which he broke the last time he was here so it didn't work anyways. BUT now it really doesn't work because it is all in pieces. Sorry Grandpa but maybe the girls will learn how to fix it.
