The other day, S had two scientists at the kitchen table. M and J were "cobserving" a dinosaur and making hypotheses (yes, they said that). They categorized their bin of dinosaurs as meat-eaters and leaf-eaters, separating the birds "because they are hard to inspect."
"This is our contrast pile."
"Whatever is small goes in the small set."
"These have long tails and stand up."
They were doing all of this using a tape measure and a kitchen scale, and wearing goggles and button-down pajamas.
At the end, two small triceratops were on the kitchen scale while the crazy little scientists in pajamas and goggles called out numbers to record as more "cobservations."
