National Museum of the United States Air Force for Homeschool Day

Claire - About a week ago we went to the National Museum of the United States Air Force for Homeschool Day. The National Museum of the United States Air Force is free all the time and will have special events year round. We went on a tour and that was fun, our tour guide was really funny.  If you ever go, try to do a tour for me.  Next time I go, I want to do the tour again. We also did classes.  Sadly classes are just on Homeschool Day, but my friend and I got to go to a laser class.  If you know anybody or anywhere that sells inexpensive lasers please post down below.


Sebastian Speaks - The person who spoke to us about boomerangs, Gary Broadbent, holds 5 world records. One was that he holds the biggest collection of boomerangs in the world, over 15 thousand of them.  I think that is a big number.  And he also holds the record for how long a boomerang can stay in that air.  It was 10 seconds but he made it to 15 minutes and 54 seconds.  He doesn't buy his boomerangs.  He is an artist so he makes his boomerangs.  If you want a boomerang to stay up a long way, make one side long and one side short.  You can check out his boomerangs or see some of his videos on YouTube.
