The Quarantine Chronicles || Chapter 4 - Cruz


My mom and dad always give us a challenge to do in the mornings.  Yesterday's challenge was to build a water park out of marble tracks and magnatiles. First we made blueprints and then combined our ideas to make the slide. Then Mila and I had to build the walls so Mila built 2 TVs and two swim up bars and then we filled the end with water and tested and IT WORKED!


For science yesterday we did a Humpty Dumpty challenge with eggs. The first experiment was to put the eggs in water. At first they sunk to the bottom but then we added salt and they started floating up because of density which makes things to float to the top. The 2nd challenge was to put an egg in the palm of your hand and then squeeze with every finger and it won't break. The 3rd challenge was to put your foot flat on the eggs and they won't break...at least sometimes😅. The fourth challenge was to put the egg in vinegar and watch how it changes after a few days. Yesterday it lost its shell and you can see the yellow yolk in the inside. It also feels squishy when you touch it and it can sort of bounce!

Today, we felt the eggs...They are no longer bouncy because when I bounced it sort of broke💔 but they got ten times squishier and when you broke one the outside layer looked like ... A PAPER BAG

My favorite part of the experiment was when I felt the egg and it blew up in my hand! What I learned was to never squeeze an egg once it was in vinegar for three days.
