Oh What Fun We Can Have With Static Electricity

The kids enjoyed using their pop-up pup tents that they got at Christmas today for school. Today was obviously a very dry day though as could be evidenced in Arowyn's hair every time she let her tent her head brushed the top of the tent and her hair stood on end quite nicely. Not wanting to miss an opportunity to learn something fun we deviated from our regularly scheduled work for a little while and took some time learn about static electricity and they fun that can be had with it.
