Science Fair and Fieldtrips

Last week, Justin's school had their Science Night. Here is Justin with his project about frogs and wetland habitats. He is working on a frog probe and a wetland mural at school while they are learning about bullfrogs. He is working on a big wetland display made out of clay to take to his class next week. After we browsed the science projects, OMSI (the local science museum) gave an awesome chemical reactions presentation for the kids. It was a fun, fun night.

















Tyler's preschool group has had a fieldtrip each week to learn more about their lesson topic of the week. Here are some pictures from their "popcorn" week fieldtrip at the movie theater. We went on a behind-the-scenes tour in the theater's projector rooms. The picture of us together was taken with one of the movie projectors in the background. After the tour, the kids watched 3-D movie trailers with 3-D glasses. We are so excited for the new Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs movie to come out. The trailer in digital 3-D was amazing.

What a great idea. I've set up different tours for my preschoolers but never thought of a movie theater. Brilliant! Need to look into that one. And I'm way behind on movies...had no idea about ice age...sounds like we need to catch that one in the theater!

Lisa, thanks! It was growing out until I went and CUT it a few days ago. :) I think I will always have short hair...I just can't get it past my shoulders before I feel the need to chop it. You are looking like quite the goldilocks lately, BTW! Very cute!

Jeri, that is wonderful news! It would seriously be a dream come true! I'll have to keep tempting you! :)
