    Movie Monday

    … today, also known as Science Sunday, because we took the kids to the Agu Exploration Station at Moscone Center yesterday. We got to build stomp rockets (and launch them), G designed his first robot, make & eat solar cookies, and prep our exploding volcanoes. We’re saving the volcanoes for some home action.

    Here’s G and his robot. Doesn’t it rock? S assures me G designed it on his own. Now I’m on a hunt for mini motors and brushes so we can do these at home. Someone’s going to have to solder the wires though, since the motors come sans wiring. Hmn, humn — G-pa?????

    and S2 launching rockets:

    Trust me — this thing flies pretty good if you apply a bit more than 28lb of stomping on it.
