Happy Birthday Reid!

Last Saturday we celebrated Reid's birthday with a Mad Scientist Party.  Rebecca went over the top and set up many "experiments" for the kids.  Below are a few of the pictures.

It all started in the Engineering Department where the kids built towers using molecules of gummy candies with bonds of toothpicks.  Prizes were awarded for tallest and then best design.

The old baking-soda-and-vinegar-in-a-bottle-that-blows-up-a-balloon experiment.  Maybe there's a shorter name for it, I don't know.

Our friends were very helpful, in this case running an electronics station where we were testing conductivity.

The group - 15 in all.
