Monday: bag o' water

Today we drew out of the jars "clean the kitchen and bathroom floors with a rag" and "plastic bag & pencil".

Cleaning the floors went fine.  Isaac lost interest rather quickly, but the kitchen floor was clean by then.  I think he slipped and fell about three times while it was drying, but since he realized that I had recommended that he not walk on the wet floor he didn't say anything.

The bag and pencil experiment went much better than I was expecting.  I really thought it would last about two minutes, but we managed to stretch it out to about ten.  We used kabob skewers instead of pencils and they worked nicely.  We talked about what he thought would happen before putting the skewers in, what would happen if he took them out, what would happen if he put them back in, etc.
