My wonderful friend Amanda runs a science fair for NCHA every year. She is incredibly organized and does a super job with it. The kids absolutely love it and look forward to it. And not just for the medals either. It could be because they get to do fun and/or messy things with parental approval. Or in Amanda's boys case, play with electricity, fire and shooting :)
My girls chose to do projects with dogs and water. I'll let you guess who did which project. Sandis' project involved seeing how dogs react in different situations. These situations involved treats, so the dogs were thrilled to be experimental subjects. Stella froze ice in different shaped containers to measure buoyancy. So yes, playing in water. You guessed right on who did which project, didn't you? ;)

Fantastic. Eli's doing his (not for NCHA, but for his school) on poker. Anyone who knows his current addiction will not be remotely surprised at that. And yes, of course I guessed right...
