Mad Science

We went to a program called "Mad Science".  The purpose was to discuss and experiment with Newton's 3 laws. 


1. What starts in motion, tends to stay in motion.
2.  For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. 
3. Force = Mass X Acceleration




It was a very active program keeping the kids very engaged.  When it came time for volunteers from the audience, it took the kids a while to warm up to the idea of being on stage in front of that many people (mostly middle school aged kids.)  I hope the kids learned something!




So, here is our group of "Mad Scientists"


And, "Mad Babies"


And, "Mad Moms" (Mad as in crazy, not angry)
