Science Fair

Emma and Eliza participated in their first ever Science Fair this year. It turned out to be a fun experience and only a little stressful for mom;)

Eliza chose to grow sugar crystals for her science project. We experimented with using different types of sugars (brown, powdered, granulated) and different types of flavoring (cinnamon and lime). The best part for Eliza: she got to eat her project when the science fair was over!
Emma worked with her friend Becca Clark on an experiment where they tested the difference between baking soda and baking powder. They made three different batches of muffins: one made with baking powder only, one made with baking soda only and one made with both. The muffins were yummy and the results were really interesting. Even I learned something!Overall, I'd say our first science fair was a success and they both did a great job!
