Little Chemist

Ethan's love of mixing things began long ago with pouring water from one glass to another.  When we discovered color mixing at the Montshire Museum of Science, we reached the next level.  Then, not to long ago when I decided to show him what happens when you mix and acid and a base (vinegar and baking soda), we reached yet another level of mixing fun.  Until today, we had been doing our mixing and what not with makeshift equipment -- but no longer.  Thanks to Uncle Dan (and Fischer Scientific) we have an assortment of pipettes, bottles, and test tubes.  Below are some pictures of Ethan using the new equipment. Thanks Uncle Dan!

Getting the hang of using the new pipettes...
