Henry and I made three kinds of muffins (oatmeal, pumpkin and PB&J) yesterday while Will was at school. Henry has decided he doesn't like sandwich bread anymore and his crackers always get soggy at school, so we chose to make a variety of muffins to put in his lunchbox.
Henry loves to help in the kitchen. He stirred everything for me and then I let him pour the batter into the muffin tin. He did an excellent job!
He sprinkled the cinnamon sugar on top too.
Henry's fave? Pumpkin muffins, of course! I make them with white whole wheat flour and less sugar than the recipe calls for and they are yummy! Plus, I know Henry will actually eat them. Will's fave, surprisingly, were the very dense PB&J muffins.
After school, Will asked to do a science project. He goes to science lab at school once a week, but he loves experiments and wants to do more. We did a lung investigation since we had just watched "Sid's Amazing Lungs" on Sid the Science Kid the day before. The boys blew bubbles into a water cup using a straw, blew a pinwheel and a party blowout, and blew soapy bubbles into the air. And of course we recorded everything into our science journals. This afternoon, I think we'll combine cooking and a science experiment and cook up a tasty after-school snack!
