The Science Experiment

For her birthday, Allie received a Science Experiment kit from her Godparents. Of course, because nerdiness is in her genes (paternal side of course), she couldn't wait to start her science experiment. We managed to hold her off until after church (with bribery)...

She enjoyed making colored water in test tubes.



Then she held them together and looked through them to see what colors it made.


After all this, she started mixing the colors into a dish to make lots of colors. She loved this part.

But the fun doesn't end yet... then she got to put small clear colorless crystals in each one, and watch and wait and wait and watch for them to grow into bigger colored crystals. This process took a couple hours, so we decided to make her nap. As soon as she woke up, she raced downstairs to see what had happened. She was so impressed.

While Allie was doing her experiment, Shannon was sitting close by... she kept busy by eating, of course!!

Thank you Aunt Jess, Uncle Scott and Jaya.
