Jake made a 2nd playdough eel and we did a few tests (no animals were harmed in the process of discovery....lol) to find out if a playdough eel would float like a real eel...it turns out that it won't and Jake the Mad Scientist suggested that it might be because it wasn't moving (like a real eel...or a boat with a motor) or because it was too heavy....he then decided that a boat was heavy too so it probably sunk because it wasn't moving.
We also wanted to find out what an eel felt like so we left the playdough in water until it was all SLIMEY, GOOEY, COLD and WET! The girls both agreed that this was GROSS but by the look on Jake's face he didn't think so!
