An Exploding, Corn Husking Good Time

Sophia's last day was a celebration of all that she's learned about  chemistry and the 1800s.  It was a lively end to her Kindergarten experience. 

Her class has been mixing up some chemistry for the last several months, so the party called for an EXPLOSION!  With the Diet Coke and Mentos prepped and ready, she was all smiles. 

Then the fizzy stuff went airborne!

So she headed for cover,

and some victory dancing!

Back into 1800s mode, they had sac races, potato tosses,

and made corn husk dolls with friends.

Appetites worked up, they gobbled up pizza and had an Ellis Island food tasting.

Claire enjoyed being along for the Kindergarten ride. 

To cool off before the school awards ceremony, her class sold some lemony refreshment. 

The award that she was most proud of was the K History award! 

Our girl SOAKED in some 1800s this year, so we were excited that her history teacher recognized her for it!

 

Goodbye, Kindergarten.  Hello, Pre-First!
