Saturday morning while Justin and Mike went for a gravel ride the Cotovsky girls joined us for some Easter fun at science city. We did different activities spread out around Science City to get a stamp, then you turned in your paper to get plastic eggs filled with a treat.
We made blooming flowers.
Learned about symmetry with butterflies.
This was just playing with the giant lever.
Did some cooking chemistry. And just had a great morning!! They also had dry ice experiments outside. The kids enjoyed playing but we were glad we went early as it got really crowded. Our membership got us all in for free which was even better! Thanks for the gift that keeps on giving!
Then at the last minute (after dinner but before dessert) we dyed eggs. I tried a new method I'd seen floating around and it was ok. You take cheap shaving cream but the food dye in it and swirl it around, then roll the eggs around in it! The colors weren't as bright as we had hoped for. But I think I need to use more dye.
The kids really enjoyed it and it was quick clean up so bonus!
And after saying Justin was doing better on the bike he had a pretty nasty crash. Hitting the ground going close to 25 mph on gravel just doesn't feel good. He had to get a new helmet (thank goodness for those) and has a scraped up elbow and shoulder.
