Did you know that a pinecone floats? Today, the Raki brothers did an experiment on that subject. Our RV was parked in a forest with big puddles and so we collected five different items: a pine cone, a rock, a waffle (that our mom was throwing out), a stick and a leaf. We thought that they would all sink, but we found out that only the stick and the rock sank. The rest floated.
After that experiment, we started a new one. It was about ripples and how they were made. We took the same things as before and threw them into the puddle to make ripples. 
We started with the rocks and threw them in the puddle. We found out that rocks make big ripples and the bigger the rock, the bigger the ripples. The sticks were about the same as the rocks. But, the leaf and the waffles barely made any ripples at all.
Uggh, then Sami threw a really biiiiiig rock into the puddle. It didn’t make ripples, it only made us all soaked. Zaiyd screamed an ear piercing screech and Kal stood and giggled so much he felt like he wasn’t breathing. If it’s raining near you, why don’t you try out an experiment like this today?
