Science experiments in the garden!

This morning we had fun running round a car boot sale, me searching for home ed crafty stuff, Freddie looking for Star Wars toys and Mia just looking for things she likes in general! We bought paddling pool for 50p! Also a frame that I hope to make into a metal board for magnetic letters and numbers to help teach reading and maths. Fred bought a Darth Vador toy and Mia a beach ball game.

After lunch our friends came over for fun in the paddling pool. We blew bubbles and then set about doing a little science experiment where we put food colouring into little cups of water and used droppers to mix the coloured water. Great discoveries where made, for example they found that blue water mixed with yellow water made green! Then we tried to do the experiment with mixing coloured paint but the kids had different plans and set about painting the walls and using small sponges to paint with as we'll as paint brushes. Great fun was had by all.
Busy children! (Mummy's having a little rest in the sun!)



The sad news of the day is that grandma fell and broke her leg and is having surgery in hospital right now :(
