Today’s Science Experiment
Dad is all about efficiency. He measures the time it takes on various routes around the city to make sure he is always on the fastest route. And he often tries to multitask around the house to save time also. This time, his multitasking led to a new scientific breakthrough.
How Did He Get that Open?
