Chemistry is cool!

I think Jake has really enjoyed his honors chemistry class this year. As a fun end of the year lab, they made tie dye t-shirts...all that pH and dye chemically bonded to fabrics stuff is a fun way to apply chemistry to everyday life. I think it turned out totally awesome. We are thinking of having him teach us as a family project. I love the spiral pattern...mine was always the rubber band circle method and this is so much cooler! What do you think...

I love it and I love tie dye, can I come too? I'll bring my own shirt. Last time we did this as a family, we had so much fun we didn't stop with shirts, Carson ended up with a lot of tie dyed chonies.
