Mom can we do science?

One of Levi's Christmas gifts this year was an electricty science kit. So last night Levi came to me and asked if we could do science. We put Millie Bug to bed and started our experiments. Levi loved the whole process. The instructions were written at a first grade level, so Levi could read and follow the directions all with hands on interaction. Levi loved it! He learned about "loops," energy, conductors, and opened and closed circuts. Check him out.

This is our closed circut loop. The energy comes from the battery, it flows through metal alligator clips and releases electricity and lights up the light bulb.

Learning is fun!
