Maxine decided she wanted to make a solar oven. She'd seen one on PBS and took off with the idea in her head. She made one and we tested the temperature of water in the oven and a control water on the ground next to the oven. It was in the morning and her plans are slightly flawed but her water in the oven was 10 degrees hotter than the control. I have plans to make a different solar oven tomorrow or Friday and cooking dinner in it. :) Pictures to follow.
And Jack learned to ride his bike today! There's a girl across the street that learned to ride her bike last week. I guess Jack decided he'd waited long enough. (For some reason, there's no audio from my crummy camera phone video.) :)
We also have plans to pull taffy this summer and do a book discussion as well as swimming. Are you doing anything fun and interesting this summer?

Oh. Let me know how pulling taffy goes. That sounds like fun.
