Me and my 20 year old thinking cap

I am sitting in my teal-ish blue bedroom after a long day of running Polkadots Junior Explorers classes, just as I do each Thursday. I teach the science lab. I dress up in a big white lab coat with shinny polkadots on it and some hipster orange framed glasses and teach about 12 two to four year olds about science!

And every now and then my experiments actually turn out the way they are supposed to! ;) 
Lots of questions to answer
And of course lots of dancing, ain't this picture just a beauty

I've gotta be honest, I had no idea that I would be teaching a class when I stepped off that plane to come here! But this is a great experience, teaching is such a blast and I am learning so much about how teach, organize kids, and activities! One of these days I will have a class where the whole thing goes smoothly, but until then, I am getting better at rolling with the punches! --"oh you thought we were making bouncy balls? No, no, they are rolling balls, see! Roll them!"
