~A day spent braving life's risks, and...

~Showing the girls how "cool" freezing temps and boiling water can be 
~Watching their excitement over trying out their homemade thermometer
~Reading "Alice In Wonderland" to them at bedtime, explaining the absurdness that Alice encountered, with interjections like, "Wait! What? How can she chop off the Cheshire's cat's head when he has no body...that's not very nice...or possible!"....love the classics smile emoticon
