After locating Kansas on our map of the United States, we read The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, A Commemorative Pop-up by L. Frank Baum and Robert Sabuda and Farmer Brown Goes Round and Round by Teri Sloat.
Farmer Brown Goes Round and Round is a cute book about a farmer and his animals getting caught in a tornado. When they drop back to earth, pigs are mooing, goats are meowing, and Farmer Brown is cock-a-doodle-dooing. C and R both thought this book was very funny.
I thought it would be fun to create a mini tornado in a jar. C and R were both completely unimpressed with this experiment. I hope our other Kansas projects are more successful.

I thought that the experiment was rather cool! How interesting that R loves Wizard of Oz. It was one movie that Anna watched and then she was talking for months about the death of a witch. One day she saw a BluRay of Wizard of Oz on my desk and asked me why we have this movie when we already have one. I said, "Well, this one will have a better quality". She replied, "Oh, you mean without a witch?"
Glad to hear my kids aren't the only ones who are sometimes hard to impress. :) Looking forward to seeing what you learn about Kansas... My friend just moved there!
LOL about them being unimpressed with the mini tornado!
I never did like The Wizard of Oz, it scared me!
