I used to do this when my kids were in school. It's a great way to expose them to non-traditional careers and explain how different subjects occur and are used in everyday scenarios. No one ever thinks about I use these skills (yes, science too) when I knit and sew. Wish I had kept up with when this is so I could have participated this year.
