Science.

This is an experiment that is part of the lesson we did on caves earlier this week. There are epsom salts dissolved in the water and it's all slowly dripping down the cotton to make a mineral deposit. This is day 2.

This is what it looks like today which is day 3, it's not all that clear in the photo but you can actually see crystals forming and the puddle is no longer growing because the edges have gone hard! We need to leave it and observe every day for 10 days so we're looking forward to seeing what the final result will look like!!

Jaden also started a 10 week science course today with about 18 other home schooled primary kids. They're looking at chemistry and today was about looking for changes and reactions when adding liquids to different powders.

In other news I am now famous.... ok not really but if you are a HEA member you'll see my family pic on the front page of the February newsletter. They did a little article on me cause I was the 1000th person to sign up. :-)
