Experimentation

Th children earned a special treat, and of all the choices Austin gave them, they picked to play with dry ice! So we had a science day!

They put coins on it to hear the noise they make when frozen instantly


Then they put chunks in different temperatures of water to see the difference in the speed of sublimation (you can't call it "melting" since it goes from solid to gas instead of liquid)

They watched it blow a giant bubble in a bowl

And the all time favorite, stirring the smoky brew!
We also made sparkling apple juice and powerade which we enjoyed with dinner. :)
