Uncles and aunts, and cousins, are all very well, and fathers and mothers are not to be despised; but a grandmother, at holiday time, is worth them all. ~Fanny Fern
Today we stayed cool by celebrating Christmas in July. We began by spraying a large round ice mound with colored salt water.
 |
| We froze the ice mound in a round bowl. We learned that the melting point of ice is 32 degrees F. When we sprayed the colored salt water on the ice mound, it lowered the melting point of the ice so that it melted more quickly.       The grands had fun playing croquet!   After we read this book by Claire Freedman...  the grands used these materials to make...  Christmas Cards!!   They mailed their cards to...   and family! Pops lead the grands in a skit about the creation of the world.  They had to jump through a machine which transported them back into time. |
At lunchtime, the grands made star- shaped tortilla sandwiches.
Yummy!
Merry Christmas from Nana, Pops and the Grands!!!
