First Grade Science Fair

Joseph participated in the science fair again this year.  He was very excited about it.  He experimented with different types of strings to see which one would grow baking soda crystals on it the best.  It turns out the embroidery/cross stick thread the was the best. He did an excellent job of explaining his project and earned a ribbon and certificate.

Joseph may look mad in the picture, but he really isn't.  He wanted to make a serious face, and it turns out that his serious face makes him look a little angry.

Ways to fill extremely cold afternoons...

...read books together under the table, build domino chains, and make ice sculptures from the huge chunks of ice laying around the yard.  Winter in New York, 2014
