Electricity!

We've been learning about electricity this week. First I learned electrical safety with a friend. You can't touch water that has a wire in it that's plugged in. You need to go around puddles with power lines in them. And if you're in a boat in the sea, and there's a storm coming, you have to drive it to shore.

Then we learned about static electricity. Dry weather makes more static. Static can make your hair stand up or a balloon stick to the fridge or wall. But it makes two balloons repel each other because their charge is the same and like charges push each other away.
