Try Science

Today we had a special visit by the Try Science team. 

The team brought with them two experiments.

 The first one was with dyes. 

 The second one was with freezing water. The result of this on was ice cream!!!

 In awe of science

 The dye smelled so good!

 shaking up the ice cream

 Yum!

 Every good scientist needs an apron.

It was a super fun day. A special thank you to all the parents who participated in making today possible.  

I have a few more photos and videos to post too. I just wanted to get these great shots on for you. 

Enjoy~

What do you get when you add a whole lot of liquid starch...

Pounds of paper scraps...

Why globes of course!!

The day was a success
