Cool Science Expiraments!

It's Thursday today, which means we did a science experiment in Kindergarten!  Earlier in the week we were learning about the five senses.  So, our experiments today had to do with taste!  First, we discovered how different flavors (sweet and bitter) tasted stronger at different parts of our tongues.  Then, we discovered that while blindfolded and holding our noses, it was tough to decipher what food we were eating.  And finally, Faith's favorite experiment of the day - changing the color of foods!

Here Faith is eating bright green applesauce!  She also had some purple vanilla yogurt.  It is amazing how excited young kids can get about something like this!  Both kids ate way more of their purple yogurt than they normally do for lunch!  Learning and eating can be so fun!  I am thankful for fun science experiments that enhance Faith's learning and create such excitement for her!

While Faith was at Kindermusik this afternoon, Shane and I had so fun outside.  He enjoyed petting the cat, Coco.  It is always a treat to spend time with each of the kids individually.  They love having our full attention, and it is nice to focus just on one!  Today I had time alone with each of the kids and it was just so nice!  And I am grateful for those opportunities as well today!
