The summer in New Orleans is nothing if it isn’t HOT and HOTTER! While I love taking the kids outside to play, some days it is hard when the temperature is already 90 degrees at 8am! Today, I thought I would feature a great indoor science activity for those days when it’s just impossible to go outside!
The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has put together a really great “cool science” site for kids! Some of the experiments that will satisfy just about any curious kid include “diving in to the miniature world with a microscope” and “specks, flecks and particles in the air.“ The site also features a really neat “Ask a Scientist” section for all those questions Mom and Dad just can’t answer. The Howard Hughes Medical Institute is also a great resource for science fair projects!
Think you have a budding Scientist on your hands? Find out what some of the most prominent biomedical researchers think you need in order to make it happen!

My son is six, and he wants to be a construction worker so he can work the excavators!
My son is 3 and the most recent thing he told me was Woody from Toy Story. I don’t think that’s possible, but maybe he’ll surprise me and be Woody in costume at Disney?
