Making Play Dough
We made play dough in science class today. We used a simple recipe: 10 heaping tbsp. flour, 1 tsp. salt, 4 tsp. oil, and 8 tbsp. warm water. Just mix and add food coloring, if desired. We also baked our creations so we could keep them forever. The kiddos had a blast!

Making Bread and Butter
Yummy! We've been studying about how the early settlers made bread and butter, so we did it ourselves today. Of course, we didn't have to milk a cow or cook over fire, but it was still a lot of work! I can say the results are worth it, though--it's delicious!

Planting Corn
We planted corn today. We learned about the Pilgrims last week, and we read that Squanto told them to put fish in with the corn they planted. So, that's what we did. Hopefully the "wild animal" seen in the last picture didn't eat all of our crop! LOL
