Don't ask me why, but with Mike's extremely busy graduate schedule, and me dealing with my wonderful preschoolers, we decided to volunteer to help out at VBS at our church. My sister Sara was in charge so that probably had something to do with it- not to mention I used to teach Sunday School and loved it and Mike needs as much teaching experience as possible for his resume.
Well all went well with that part, but what we didn't realize was - with Mike teaching and me in charge of snack time, the only people in charge of the twins were their teachers. This was a few weeks ago, but let's just say they were BAD. Mostly Sammers. Noah loved the music. We got a CD and still sing the songs repeatedly daily.
It was an awesome program called Power Lab. Lots of Science experiments. The fav was walking on water. It took 20 pounds of corn starch. It was very cool. If the kids walked quickly, they walked ON the water. If they faltered (like Peter in the story) then they sank. I tried it. Very neat.
Another experiment involved dry ice. neat. do you know that dry ice only loses 10% daily? and it is colder than regular ice? Why don't more people use more it when camping? I don't know. anyway, she blew bubbles with it.
Lesson learned? probably not. My kids love Jesus. Most people at the church love my kids... I guess I will live through this too.
