the mad scientists

I got the dreaded question yesterday that every mother hates to hear, "I'm bored. What can I do, I've got nothing to do?" My mind usually goes straight to some type of job around the house, but the first thing out of my mouth was, why don't you crack out your science box and make some concoctions.







Bella's face in this cracks me up. They were not to sure what to expect by mixing the two.


they even got a wee bit carried away.

I guess sometimes they just need a little nudge because my suggestion went a long way. Can't believe how long they played with it and then ended up moving onto other things when they were done. Dreaded bored thwarted.

Have a good one :)

I hate the "b-word" so much! I'm glad you had a good suggestion that proved so helpful to them.

the "b" word usually lands my child a unwanted job too-- where, oh where did you find that science kit-- my 6 yr old would be in HEAVEN.

I guess we need a science box.

I LOVE Bella's expressions throughout the photos!
We need one of those kits around here too, for my oldest.

Good idea. My first thought is to give them chores, too!

I didn't even recognize Bella in that first photo – she looks so grown up.
