Started homeschooling Katie and Zack, [then] 7 year-old twins, September 2005. Like most HSers, my husband Pete and I are not anti-government, religious fanatics or hermits. We simply want our kids to enjoy learning and we have gained so much more in the process. Homeschooling is at the core of much of our family life now and this is a space where I talk about whatever pops into my head about life in general.

In a Lather
This was a very cool atom/hot air expansion experiment with Ivory soap and the microwave. You put half a bar of Ivory Soap in the microwave for one minute and you get that fluffy stuff. The small piece of soap also on the plate is a different brand of soap that doesn't float and has a lot less air.
The kids were stunned, me too, but not as much because I'd been told what to expect. They were also impressed that you can still wash with it!
