soap cloud
look at my test tube!
I'm pretty sure the pinata was as big as some of the kiddos!
eeewwwwww....
Brooklyn and I had fun decorating this...
Our budding scientist had a blast at his party. Actually so did his parents! We both donned lab coats, got out the best chemicals in the house, and created FUN!
We did bugs and magnifying glasses, Mentos/Coke explosions, acids and bases, baking soda/ vinegar, oil and water test tubes, GIANT bubbles, dry ice, ivory soap in microwave, soap and milk and food coloring, and SLIME! Not to mention an active volcano for a cake and a rocket ship pinata! It was a packed day.
My favorite was probably the acids and bases. I boiled the red cabbage until the water turned dark purple. The water will then change colors based on the PH balance of the substances you mix it with. It turns dark green when mixed with a base and bright red when mixed with an acid. The kids liked this a lot, and I was still experimenting with this after the party was over. I used ammonia to see how green I could get the water, and told Tyler to look, he said, (slightly irrirated), "Mom, the party is OVER." Oh well, I still liked that one.
... there were plenty of "WOW"s and lots of "COOL"s and Tyler had a fantastic time!

Oh my goodness! You always have the BEST parties!!!! Your kids are so lucky to have such an amazing mom!
What a FUN party! You are amazing with your b-day parties -- and did you make the pinata, too?? So cool. Wish we lived closer to crash it and enjoy the acids and bases, too! ;) Happy 6th year, Tyler!
