Walking on Egg Shells + More!

Welcome to The Kid’s Co-op! Since last week we’ve joined up with 40 family friendly bloggers who are excited to come together and share activities that are family oriented, fun, unique and educational. THANK YOU to everyone who participated last Friday, click here to see all the activities shared.

Do you remember that tingling feeling in your heart when you were a kid and you pulled an “A” on a spelling test or did an awesome art project at school? That… YES! This is fridge worthy feeling? The pride you felt as your mom took the magnet and posted your work for the whole world to see… up on the fridge?

Well each week we celebrate that awesome feeling by sharing our favorite finds from The Weekly Kid’s Co-op Collection. This week we are proud to showcase an amazing art project and science experiment. Check out our favorite Fridge Worthy ideas from last week’s collection below!

Walking on Egg Shells by Alex Nguyen

“This week’s experiment was walking on eggs. I repeat, WALKING ON EGGS. How cool is that? Since my kids are only 6 and 3, instead of walking we settled for what would happen if we stood on eggs. Along with teaching them about the scientific theory, it was just loads of fun. I would highly recommend having someone help you if you are doing this with more than one child, have a towel under the eggs, and a sink nearby in case of egg breakage.”

Let’s Lasso the Moon Note: I absolutely love that you can see a smile behind that chalkboard. Having the children write an hypothesis? Stellar! The whole blog post is great, as is Alex’s advice to sign up for Steve Spangler’s Experiment of the Week newsletter. Thank you.

Foil Drawings by ArtClubBlog

“It was simply too cool not to try out, and the great directions ensured everything worked out well. The end result reminds me of the old tin ceiling tiles which were popular in the late 1800′s and early 1900′s, during the Victorian era.”

Let’s Lasso the Moon Notes: These are amazing.
