Mother’s Day Idea: Have a Virtual Tea Party

May 4, 2020

One group of people that I think quarantine is very hard for is Grandmothers. If they live close by, it’s not easy for them to skip what were frequent visits or to start having visits from 6+ feet away in the driveway to way hello. For grandmothers that live farther away, it’s really hard to cancel flight plans to visit… Read More

Easy Science for Kids: A Rainbow Eruption

March 21, 2020

My kids love doing science experiments. They don’t do anything fancy: some of their “experiments” are mixtures of dirt water and sticks in the backyard. I realized years ago that you can use the good old baking soda and vinegar “eruption” to make a variety of fun experiments. We have built a clay volcano and let it erupt, we made… Read More
