We completed our study of forces, with a big focus on gravity. At the end of this unit, we made a giant marble run using pipe insulation, plastic bottles, painting tape, and empty tubes from wrapping paper, toilet paper and paper towels. This was a fun project completed on the weekend so we could include dad (or more to the point, so I did not have to do it alone!) And yes, we often wear pajamas beyond breakfast (although, since this was the weekend, I think no one will judge us.)
Toilet Paper (is very important)
I'm finding that many of our art projects, experiments, etc. are a great use for empty toilet paper and paper towel rolls. We used to recycle them at the curb every week, but now, they are a hot commodity and we keep most of them "just in case".
