Forts, Fights and Science

Might as well update some more....


Doing the pillow fort thing...



Now onto the good stuff - soldier wars! 
(we use a large dice to flick on the ground to knock them down)

Thanx Grampa for allowing Sage to enjoy the Civil War era...


 





Now onto some science!
We have 2 excellent kid science books with tons of simple experiments and Sage and I love to do them in our free time (between playing games and reading).
Just flicking through is great and he recently saw something about comets and their impacts
(he also knows something about what happened to the dinos...)
So we decided to get ready.

 aquarium rocks all level and flat

test 1 - low height, small rock

 impact crater

 Test 2 - medium height, small rock

 bigger impact crater

Test 3 - Getting higher!

 "Did you see that?" impact crater

 Test 4 - highest height, small rock

 "hmm bigger!" impact crater

 Now onto the bigger rock with the same heights. Test 1b
What will happen, Sage?
The crater will bump bigger.
Yup.

 impact crater

 Test 2b

 "wow, bigger!" impact crater

 Test 3b

 "Daddy, I see the white!" impact crater

 Test 4b

 "Wo ho! Did you see that?" impact crater

 Test 5b

"Yeah!" impact crater



Ok, that is it for now.
