Day 1 of summer learning time

This summer I decided to step up my mom game. Each day we are having learning time where the kids write, read, do math games and we do science experiments. We kicked off the first day with Newtons laws of motion, oil vs water, and colored salt. Milo recorded his findings in his journal and we made a video of Makays experiment.  Makay has a much gentler hand like a ninja, he successfully tapped the pan out of the way 3 times and funny Milo knocked the whole setup off the counter like a hulk. Nora is still worried about the egg that was smashed on the floor.  The salt was supposed to spread the water color paint around and give it a splotchy texture, but Nora ended up just making a pile of painted salt and she was happy.  The other days we spent at the pool they just quickly read and played a math game on the iPad to pass off their jobs so we could get to the fun part of the day.  Aunt Tiff loaded Milo up with some magazines for reading material to try to get him to a little more excited about his reading time.
