As I've previously mentioned a new favorite show in our house is Jake and the Neverland Pirates on the Disney channel. Our latest interest and inspiration from the show has been volcanos - there's an episode that features one along with the catchy tune
Hot Hot Lava (FYI, if you click the link and watch the video - I am not responsible for any songs that are running through your head at 2am!).
Julia's class had talked about volcanos a little last year and their teachers had made one for them to watch erupt. And after seeing the Jake episode she asked if we could make one at home. of course we could! So thanks to some newspapers from Grandma Les
we I constructed a volcano (J took one look at the messy process of paper mache and decided that was
not her thing). Hence no photos of this part.
After a couple days of drying Julia and Benj did the painting... they also painted themselves and almost the entire deck in the process!
Then a couple of days later we moved onto the main event - the volcano erupting!
It kept them (and Andrew) entertained for quite awhile!
