Lilys investigation

Lily woke up and asked me for a bucket filled with soapy water and paper towels so she could do an investigation. I just watched what she was doing.

First she rubbed her hands in dirt. Then she tried to get the dirt off with the paper towel. She carefully inspected her hands and said they still are dirty. She decided to wash her hand with soap and water and then dry them . She inspected her hands again and said they are germ free. She then told Aj all about her experiment. Lily was so proud of herself.













After she finished she asked if we could walk to the beach because she wants to investigate more...
