Rayovac Steve Spangler Science Contest and Build a Light Bulb

As a Boy Mom, Science is so fun!  My boys love to experiment and create.  I will never forget our first Dinosaur Dig.  I ordered a Dinosaur Dig Kit and we explored and 'dug for Dinosaur teeth."  It was great fun.  The Tigers were younger then and they gave it their whole heart.  We all learned and loved that science experiment.  "We brought Science to Life."  Sort of.

Now, I get so excited about Steve Spangler Science - I love that Rayovac is teaming up again with Steve Spangler Science to provide three educators entrance into the Spangler's hands on Science institute, Science in the Rockies!  July 10-12, 2012. 

So now the Exceptional Teacher in your child's life can bring Science back to life at the cool Spangler Science Institute.  Take a look at this Build a Light Bulb Science experiment.  Now that's a Science Experiment.  I have to do this with the Tigers.

Rayovac Teachers Bring Science to Life Contest

"Ms. Mommy is the best teacher on the planet because she helps me all the time."

Gulp.  That's one of the comments I got from one of our Tigers the first year we started homeschooling.  And talk about a mix of emotions, this made me smile, cry, love, and tremble at the responsibility!  Yet, I know how important a teacher can be to a child.

The years our children were in traditional school (both private and public - yes, we've done it all! :) We were fortunate enough to have awesome teachers for each child each year.

So I have big shoes to fill! :)
