This started as an experiment to see again what happens to an egg shell in vinegar (since both girls didn't see the results last time) and see if you can bounce a raw egg - it didn't all turn out as planned.
One egg was put into a glass and covered with vinegar. The other egg was colored on with a crayon, then put into a glass and covered with vinegar. We were supposed to see if there was a difference in how the shells disappeared with the crayon or not.
They checked their eggs the next day, before we could bounce them the girls tried to poke the shell-less eggs. We never got to bounce them. It is a cool way to teach osmosis though.

Geez Amy, Are you sure you're not a scientist? Your girls will be by the end of summer! What fun!
I'm sure your girls love science stuff but you better keep having kids cause you'll see how boys react! You are a fun mom!! My kids would love that but I don't know where you come up with stuff like this and I'm not the kind of mom to do it with them. ha ha
