Eli has been studying blood and its' components. So we created some fake blood.
I cannot take any credit for this idea, actually I feel like I can take no credit for any ideas anymore since all ideas that have ever been thought of are all on Pinterest.
The plasma was yellow (water with yellow food coloring) at first.
Then the cheerios are the red blood cells, they were colored red with red food coloring.
The white blood cells are the marshmallows.
And the platelets (we did not have purple pom poms, so I had Eli use the perler beads)......so maybe that was an original idea? Ha ha ha!
Anyhow, he had to tell me what the red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets did as their job in the blood stream.
He is such a smarty pants!
