Sweet Science

Inspired by the crystal-making kit Audrey got from the Easter Bunny, Audrey and Kate decided to do a project on crystals -- specifically, sugar crystals -- for their school's science fair. With help from their friend Hannah, they learned about crystals and how sugar is made, then did an experiment to see which type of sugar -- raw, table, brown, or powdered -- made the best sugar crystals (i.e., rock candy). With help from Dada, they set up the experiment and monitored it for a week, then wrote up their results and presented it at the science fair this evening.
