Diamonds in the Rough: Science for Sickies

Wednesday, September 14, 2011

Did you know you can still have science class with a sick child?

If the kid lies low enough and you have a straw, he/she can learn about siphoning.

Hopefully he will not turn to a life of crime with that knowledge. (Don't tell him that's how you can steal gasoline from a car's gas tank.)

Thou shalt not steal.

Glad you aren't endorsing stealing, hahaha! This is a useful science skill though.

Sorry to hear you have a sick one. My Grace is fighting a little cold. She's been on me to buy straws. I keep forgetting.

It is also how you clean a fish tank - But you have to remember to get the hose out of your mouth quickly - or else you will end up with a mouthfull of fish-poop water.....Don't ask me how I know that. Seriously. :P

Praying she feels well soon!
