Science Experiment with Toast + Banana Bonus!

Today Lucy and Daddy are conducting a toast based experiment. Obviously her science lab coat is required.

She has a special stamp that must be pressed into the bread.

This is a very serious experiment.

Must make sure that the pressure is even to get an accurate result.

Yup - the preparation seems to have gone well.

Now to place the bread into the processing equipment.

Start the equipment.

There is a lot of waiting in science.

The equipment indicates that the processing is complete.

What a result. Perfectly embossed Tom and Jerry toast.

Lucy is most impressed with the result of her experiment.

However, most great science is an amalgam of multiple disciplines so Lucy decides to push it up a level. Enter the banana.

Lucy chops the banana up.

Then mushes it into a fine paste.

She carefully applies it to the Tom toast.

Then the Pièce de résistance - the tasting

Altogether a successful morning of science. And yummy banana on cat toast.

Physics Lesson - Ice and Salt

Mummy and Lucy are having one of their regular science experiments. Lucy has noticed that folks put salt down when it is icy and asks Mummy why.

Mummy has the Ice and Saxo out in the blink of an eye so she can demonstrate to Lucy how salt can reduce the freezing point of Ice. She gets Lucy to add salt to one glass of Ice whilst the other one is a control.

After a couple of minutes it is clear that ice with the salt added is melting and the pure ice is not.

That is a pretty conclusive science experiment. Theory proven!

Lucy speculates that if she adds some salt to Mummy she might not have to wear her hat inside to keep warm.
