Anden's Science Project

Date: May 17th

Anden had to do a big Science Project

for his final Science grade.

They were able to pick their own topic to test.

Well apparently his teacher sent home a packet of ideas

or they could make up their own and have her approve it.

I never saw the packet because Anden had bigger plans.

He informed me the next day,

"Mom I picked my topic!"

I replied, "Oh cool what is it?"

He smiles and says, 

"What type of fidget spinner spins the longest!"

Naively I replied,

"Oh that's a good one.  What's going to be your variables?"

He smirks and says,

"I'm not sure yet.  But this means I need you to buy me 5 more spinners.

It's for school you know."

Seriously!  Only this kid would find a legitimate way to make me buy him

yet even more of those dumb fidget spinners!!! lol

We had 2 weeks to get the project finished.

Good thing trusty Amazon Prime delivers in 2 days

so we had plenty of time to set up the experiment, perform it

then write up the report and create the tri-fold board!

Test Day:
This was a family event.
We set up the experiment in the garage.
Anden was in charge of spinners and the stop watch.
Ryan was in charge of the air compressor.
I was in charge of recording the data.
Laiklyn was in charge of destroying the test environment.
Taylee was in charge of Eastlie - which also turned into my job.

Yes I may have spent my entire Mother's Day night assembling the poster for him
and finishing his report.
But I guess that's just what Mothers do!

He was super excited the next morning when it was magically ready to go to school!

A couple days later was the actual Science Fair.

So the littles and I went to the school to tour the projects 

and see this cute kid!

(with the most popular science project...since he took the actual spinners to display/use!)

Oh and by the way we got a 100% on this project! :)
