Summer Schedule Week 8

Monday: Experimented with plastic bags, water and pencils. I didn't get any pictures of it though. Did you know that if you fill a sandwich bag full of water and then take a sharp pencil it will poke through it without spilling the water out. It will only spill out when you pull the pencil out. We poked one bag with five pencils, it was pretty neat.

Tuesday: We were suppose to play freeze tag at the park but instead we played scrabble with cheez it crackers. Have you seen the scrabble ones, pretty fun.

Wednesday: Moon sand. All it is 8 cups flour and 1 cup baby oil. We halved the recipe since I only had a 1/2 cup baby oil.
It was all over the floor by the end but they sure had fun. I love Luke's tongue out it this picture.
Thursday: Ice boats. We put water in muffin tins and made our own sails out of construction paper and tooth pics. I put tin foil over the muffin pan and we inserted the toothpicks then froze it. We sailed them down the canal. I'm happy to say that mine won he he. I forgot to get pictures of us racing them :(

Friday: We made no-bake peanut butter rice krispy treats. There is only one bar left so....yeah they liked them. The recipe is here : http://www.marthastewart.com/343255/no-bake-peanut-butter-rice-krispies-cook Well there was one more left, it's gone now. 

Today was their last day of swimming lessons. They did so well and learned so much! Danika's teacher wants her to try out for the swim team. Today BriLynn went off the diving board, she took some coaxing but she did it! 

Here are some swimming lesson pictures.
