Science!

Bug and I worked on some science projects today. First up, we set up a water-filtration system to see if we could turn dirty water into clean water. In the first pic, Bug is working on putting the parts together.

Here's the final product. The top layer is gravel, then sand followed by active carbon and, finally, filter paper.

I forgot to take a pic of the dirty water...we mixed water, soil and cooking oil together. Here's Bug, pouring it into the filter.

Here you can see some of the dirt being filtered out of the water.


Here's what came out the bottom. Clear water! (we didn't drink it, though)

Bug also got this egg for Easter. We put it in water and it's supposed to crack open and something will grow out of it...stay tuned!
