Well, finally their persistence was rewarded.
The kit came with lots of fun and supposedly "nontoxic but not intended for human consumption" powders. There are directions for 7 experiments; so far, we have completed 3. We made purple water, red water and blue water. We also made fuzzy water. Then we added a chemical to make squishy jewels in all of those colors mentioned. It was a good sensory experiment but the whole part about gases, liquids and solids and acids and bases....yea, that didn't really sink in.

Funny. This reminded me that from ages 7-9, Caitlin wanted to be a scientist. She had chemistry sets, science kits, metal detector, dissecting kits, whole shebang. Her lowest ACT score...Science. Kyle never had any interest in any of it, other than wanting to make a trebuchet in 6th grade. His ACT score in Science...a perfect 36. Ya just never know.
