Day 90
21st March 2022
Robotics

I was still so tired this morning.
Liam set an alarm and I just keep falling back to sleep & going into those deep micro sleeps with surreal dreams.
When I finally got up, I came out to find the kids had opened the science box and had already made this little robot.
“We didn’t even fight!” Mila declared.
I was impressed. Here’s the link. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2kAyZf1oYSc
Here’s what they had to do.
I’m thinking if absolutely nothing else, they’ll never need help putting together their IKEA furniture!

Compass
I had to go into work today, so I left Liam to it.
He took them on a playdate to the beach with a heap of families. Today they were learning about the earth’s magnetic pull and how that works with a compass.
They made their own compass by first rubbing a needle against a magnet, spearing the needle through a cork and floating it in some water.
They watched as the needle pointed north.
None of my videos are embedding tonight. 😒 The link to the video is below.

Liam said he forgot to take photos, but they did a nature scavenger hunt as well.
Mila drew a picture of her friend Gypsy.

And that’s about it.
As he didn’t take any pictures 🙄it does make writing a bit tricky.
Work was long & I’m feeling tired & emotional.
Best not to blog when feeling like a train wreck.
Tomorrow’s a new day.
