I love that more and more we are seeing programs designed and empowering our girls. I am the mother of a 10 year old daughter who loves science. I was never one to be interested in science but I also feel that had alot to do with the teachers that I had as a child and adolescent. Science was never fun or exciting and watching my daughter explain to me what she did in class shows me that things have changed since I was a kid. My daughter is currently involved with an afterschool program that does similar programs involving science and it is sponsored by Loreal. She loves it and I am excited that she is so interested in the cause and effect of the science projects they create in their "lab". I am glad that there is another program out there that I can get information from and pass on to her school district as well as the one in which I teach.
