Gumdrop City

Bubble Boy had the pleasure of teaching 4 mixed age classes of kindergarteners, 1st and 2nd graders for Science Day at our elementary school a week or two back. We sat up 'til late in the night stuffing 150 zip top snack bags with precisely 11 gumdrops and 25 toothpicks, which is not surprisingly, rather tedious. The kids had fun playing Buckminster Fuller and seeing just how strong a triangle can be. Seems we went overboard on the bags though and had a few leftover so Big E decided to make a sort of Polly Pocket Epcot Center village-thing. It kept her busy for a while and Little A sure did like wearing his Gumdrop City Hall Hat.
