Solar energy
In science we have been learning about heat energy. Our experiment this week was taking a magnifying glass and trying to burn a hole in some paper. Well, we can’t stop there. Will other things burn or change? 
We tried dog hair (both black and white), sticks, leaves, feathers, my plastic flower pot (without my knowledge), and then we moved on to bugs. Yes, my children are now Ant Bullies. Oh well. We learned a lot but had a lot more fun.
Y’all come back now.

About the author
I am a work at home Mom of two of the best boys ever. I am a Nationally Certified Master Groomer and have been grooming out of my home for the last 12 years.
We have recently moved to Greenbrier Tn on 27 acres. We are new to the "homesteading thing" but we are excited to learn. We hope to be filling our farm with many critters and a garden.
We are homeschoolers so everything is a unit study to us. It has been fun to see the boys help Dad cut firewood. We will also be learning how to build a chicken coop in the near future as well.
I have been making handcrafted soap lately as well and I am seeing an improvement in that business as well. It is all natural vegetable and goat milk based soaps. Can't wait to share this experience with everyone.
