We had a lot of fun this week experimenting with straws!
The kids:
- discovered how vocal chords work
- found out that the longer the straw is, the harder it is to suck up liquid
- used a thaumatrope to see that sometimes the signal from the eyes to the brain gets confused
- constructed a wind-powered car
- built hoop gliders
Remember… all kids entering 2nd through 6th grades are invited to join us Thursday mornings starting again July 12 from 10:00-11:00 for some free experimenting!!!
Also, we invite them to join us Tuesday afternoons @ 4:00 for a movie. All movies are rated either G or PG. Drinks with lids welcome.
Programs for kids ages 3 through entering 1st grade are Friday mornings from 9:00-10:00.
As of June 27th, the kids are in the lead, currently out-reading the adults by 14 books! Be sure to stop in and ask about this community wide competition.
