Happy Easter!

We shared a lovely Easter morning with some friends.  It was actually warm enough to hunt for eggs outside!

Farmer's Museum Sugaring Off Sunday

We joined some friends in Cooperstown at the Farmer's Museum for the sugaring off pancake breakfast.  Every year, maple trees in the area are tapped around this time for syrup.  Places like the Farmer's Museum have special programs to go along with it.  Holden practiced being a blacksmith using a tiny hammer, Joseph fed a calf and tried maple/snow ice cream, and Lena road the carousel.  Everyone had a good time.

 

 

Kindergarten Science Fair Success

Joseph participated in his first science fair tonight.  He did a fantastic job!  Once I got him to understand that a science fair doesn't involve pony rides or farris wheels, he was excited to do a project.  His was about gem hunting.  He searched for gems hidden in sand using different tools and then explained which tools worked best.  Joseph set up his display board and materials and explained everything all by himself.  He emphasized that adults and kids could try to search for the gems.  He is super excited about his certificate and ribbon.
