I like it, but honestly haven't used it much. Once Jemma got sick I got scared about looking at small living things under a microscope since we had to be so careful about germs. Now she's doing well again, so I feel better about microscope work, but have plans for Earth Science.<br /><br />Anyway, we like it and I'm sure we will use it in the near future.jmommymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038986572848163326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938185068078673572.post-6032732506977110442013-07-31T21:45:41.703-04:002013-07-31T21:45:41.703-04:00Hi Julie,

I'll need to upgrade our "kids" one in the next year or two so am on the look out for something decent.<br /><br />Cheers, LisaMulti-tasking Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824304337746456198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938185068078673572.post-70300770829486815492013-07-26T02:10:25.358-04:002013-07-26T02:10:25.358-04:00Kristi,

We've watched a few Bill Nye videos so we will have to check that out too.<br /><br />Juliejmommymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18038986572848163326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4938185068078673572.post-78667887563829079322013-07-25T11:06:10.933-04:002013-07-25T11:06:10.933-04:00I love earth sciences!

We've had a great time, partly because I love the subject too: Here's my pinboard on geology: http://pinterest.com/kristijoyful/theme-geology/<br /><br />I also used a few u-tube videos (to show plate movements. Cool! And a great Bill Nye "Great Discoveries DVD". http://store.discoveryeducation.com/product/show/48466 His video could provide a nice framework for a variety of subjects. I would also recommend this book: http://www.amazon.com/How-Earth-Works-Activities-Earthquakes/dp/1556524420/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1374764661&sr=8-2&keywords=how+the+earth+works<br /><br />Have fun!
