You guys know I love Science! I want to share with you a fun product from Timberdoodle, Stepping Into Science. Stepping Into Science is published by Thames & Kosmos and is recommended for kids ages 5-7+. This all-in-one kit makes science with your little ones convenient.
Using this Science kit, students will study 5 main topics through 29 experiments. These topics include Biology, Physics, Chemistry, air and water.
I am using Stepping Into Science as part of G's 2nd grade curriculum. I really like the convenience of a grab and go science program. Apart from common household items like water, vinegar, paper towels, crayons, etc., everything else is included.
Since there are 29 experiments, you can do 1 experiment a week to fill your school year or you can adapt and use it as best fits your needs. I find that G likes to sit down and do several experiments at one time so that is how we use our kit. I love that experiments are simple and easy to expand on for kids that want to learn more! In this particular kit students will learn what makes a magnify glass magnify, how air pressure indicates weather, how suction cups work, why soap bubbles are round, how air resistance depends on an object's size and shape and so much more! If you are looking for an easy to use, affordable Science kit for your young student, we would definitely recommend Timberdoodle's Stepping Into Science.
We celebrated G's 7th birthday over the weekend (a tiny bit early)! It was a bit of a whirlwind as we planned it last minute but we wanted A to be able to celebrate with us before she heads back to college tomorrow. G picked Baby Shark Theme 🦈
It is with a heavy heart that I announce that our beloved rescue dog, Stevie (affectionately referred to as Stevie Dawg here) passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 24th at home. He was so loved and the house has felt so empty without him. I'm so thankful for the 9 1/2 years we had with him and all the memories.
C turned 16 this week! I’m so proud of him and all his accomplishments. He is now taller than both David and I (and he may have another inch or two to go - who knows). He passed his driving test yesterday with a score of 98. We love you C!!

Level 6 is in the books for D and what a season! She was suppose to compete at State last week and 2 days prior she ended up spraining her ankle. While we were all bummed for her, we are so thrilled with the amazing season she had and all that she accomplished. Way to go D, we are so proud!
