Moon

The Bug has been very interested in space lately. It stared with just space exploration then went to Mars now she's on the Moon. She got this Moon book from the library recently. At the end it suggests an experiment using flower and marbles to make model moon craters. She's been asking and asking about it. Tonight we were making scones for tomorrow's knitting group holiday party. It's always her job to cut margarine into flour. Hey look that's just like dropping marbles into flour. Well close.
She experimented with different sizes and dropping heights.

Our moon had a lot of craters by the end.
