Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. Published Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! How’s it going today? Yesterday was a big catch-up day for me – I had a full inbox, a pile of mail to go through and a long to-do list. Some days are just like that. 🙂
My son followed the easy steps in the set and created a full circuit – when he flipped the switch, the light came on! He was so excited.
When my son got home from school yesterday afternoon we tried out his Elenco Electronic Snap Circuits, Jr. Kit that he got for Christmas from my sister. I don’t know why we waited so long to open the box – it was so easy to follow and so much fun! He played with it for more than an hour – setting up different circuits – some with lights, some with fans, some with music, some with other sounds. . . all easy enough to follow but still complex enough that we had great conversations about why and how they worked. One circuit experiment in the instructional booklet has you close the circuit with various things around the house – why did a paper clip work but a paper clip didn’t? Good stuff. Would definitely recommend this set to others! My son is 7-years-old and it seemed very age appropriate!
For dinner last night we had roasted butternut squash (cubed) – served hot over arugula and spinach, sprinkled with feta cheese and drizzled with balsamic vinegar. I’ve been roasting a lot of veggies this winter and I love how easy, healthy and flavorful it is! Tonight I think we’ll have chicken of some kind – how’s that for planning ahead? What’s on your menu plan this week?
