Ok, I know everyone has probably heard about the reaction that happens when you drop Mentos candy into a Diet Coke, but check out this supercool s-l-o-w motion video of it happening! The kids are so into this and are begging to try it. This is all on Steve Spangler's fun blog, and an explanation of the science behind it can be found on this page.
Another cool find is the Amazing Incredible Handwriting Worksheet Maker where you can print free handwriting worksheets till your heart's content! I'm probably the last to find this gem too, but Colleen just told me about it and I had to share. :-)
The last thing on my cool stuff list today is what I saw when I went down the front steps Saturday:
This is Brenda Breyer swinging from a rose bush. She has been around for a few years now and is starting to show her age. Yes, the poor dear is missing a foot. But, when her riding boots are properly shoved on, she can ride as well as ever! The lovely blue dress is something Amelia just recently crocheted for her. (I totally love how the swing "ropes" are attached to the rose branch. Bread ties!)
Have a terrific day and stay cool!
