Every Monday, Theo and I are taking a class together called "Exploring Science Through Art" at the Lawrence Hall of Science. We get to do really fun stuff like smash up flower petals and blackberries to make colors, and mix dry tempera with shaving cream and corn syrup. Then on Thursdays, it's on to physical fitness at his "gymnastics" class (mostly running around with girls dressed like fairies, walking on the balance beam, and jumping on the trampoline). Finally, Saturday at noon is African drumming, where we learn different rhythms such as samba and reggae. All of this is a welcome distraction from his obsession with dinosaurs. (Hey, if anyone needs to know how many fingers a T-rex has vs. a Carnosaurus, just ask.)
