Science Fair

Which Diaper Absorbs the Most Water?

The Answer: Pampers

Place: 3rd


Youngest entered the Science Fair for the first time this year and said she really enjoyed it. She took 3 brand name diapers: Luvs, Huggies and Pampers and put them to the test. They all absorbed the same amount of water so she came up with putting pressure on them (simulating a baby sitting in it) to see if they leaked that way. All but the Pampers leaked a little tiny bit. She did AWESOME for her first experiment and waiting until the last minute (thank heavens for easy projects). She wants to do it again so I guess we accomplished something. A side note: "Science is my favorite subject when I can do experiments" says Youngest.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Congrats on the science project award! That tree house rocks, better not let Arielle see it. She's been begging Jim to build a treehouse when we get to NC!
