Material from a previous blog:
We all know the best learning takes place when it is self-motivated! We have borrowed a book from the library called Every Kid Needs Things that Fly! by Ritchie Kinmont. We got it to go along with L4′s Fabulous FUN Family Friday on Airplanes but have kept it for several weeks because the boys are so interested in it.
We all know the best learning takes place when it is self-motivated! We have borrowed a book from the library called Every Kid Needs Things that Fly! by Ritchie Kinmont. We got it to go along with L4′s Fabulous FUN Family Friday on Airplanes but have kept it for several weeks because the boys are so interested in it. Above are F9 & E6 trying out their modifications of one of the hot air balloon experiments. We did not have all the exact components on hand but they switched a few things around & tried it a little different. The goal was to make a hot air balloon with a basket that would carry an action figure. When their helium balloon would not lift the basket or the action figure by himself they decided to try a Playmobile man, then a legos man. When it wouldn’t carry away even this tiny man they changed their idea & thought it might make a good parachute instead.
Here they are trying to do a paratrooper jump from their playground cabin. The wind blew their man way off coarse & then…he came untied!
The legos soldier landed safely in the sandbox but here is their hot air balloon escaping into the heavens above the tree field. Like most of life, sometimes we learn the most from our mistakes!material from a previous blog
