Wednesday: Flowers, dinosaurs and holograms

We are going to dissect flowers.

Carefully.

i.e. not stab them repeatedly with the scalpel and slice them with the scissors until they are mashed.

Because if you do that CHILDREN you wont be able to see all the parts that I'm going to make you LABEL on an educational printout.

See. It's not that hard.

A trip to a hologram exhibition at a museum.

Spooky.

My personal favourite:

Quick, get the camera. Child doing something educational at museum!
