Laralee and I teach a weekly science class for second-graders, and a few weeks ago we put together a lesson about chemistry– specifically, how mixing different things together has some pretty interesting results.

We had a bit left over after class, so at home we mixed up a big batch and had some fun with it. Mmm, slime…
