My Volcanologist

Last week, Caleb, Karen and Bud watched a TV show about volcanoes. Caleb absolutely loved it, so a few days later, he and I did some experimenting in the kitchen. He had a blast. We rolled out some Play-doh and attached it to a jar. Here you can see he is rolling some Play-doh into a ball (no, he isn't preparing to pray).

Stir it up! 

I loved his surprise the first time he saw it explode! The fun part for me was seeing his reaction which stayed terrific every time. 

We went through an entire box of baking soda and several pints of vinegar.

He loved our fun time in the kitchen (who knew you could have a fun time in the kitchen without ending up with a plate of cookies as the result?).
I have now written this post three times as Blogger keeps crashing on me. I think I will hurry and post it before it crashes again. Such frustration!
