These pictures are from October so they are a bit dated. However, they are just so cute and always make me smile. Henry loves to measure, pour, sort, funnel, and transfer liquids and solids from one container into different sized containers. Apparently, this activity is a real skill that his teachers use to evaluate the kids on their "scientific interest and abilities." For Henry's first parent-teacher conference (yes, they have them for 2 year olds), his teachers told us that Henry excelled in scientific interest and abilities. Imagine our pride. In these pictures, we had set up a little station outside so that Henry could play with different colored water. Since we didn't want him to get his clothes discolored and we wanted this to be a truly authentic experience, we dressed him as a typical graduate student, in my old tie-dyed t-shirt. (BTW, I made this t-shirt in Girl Scouts, which may make tie-dying the most useful and lasting skill that I learned from my years in the scouts. Also, speaking of Girl Scouts, a little one came by a few weeks ago to sell cookies. It was late afternoon, snack time, and since I am pregnant, well, let's just say that her sales alone may be sending her troop to a broadway show in NYC this year for their annual overnight instead of a butter churning demo, which, again, is another one of my own personal GS experiences).
