Home school and a science project.

Today we studied about some of the planets. Isaiah was curious about how the craters were formed on Mercury.






So, I filled a bowl full of flour and placed it on the ground by the picnic table. Isaiah collected several balls of various sizes and weights. He then dropped or threw them into the flour. Funny thing the golf ball left a larger "crater" in the flour than the baseball. Because he dropped the baseball but threw the golfball.







The craters when he was finished. Pretty cool!
