My son asks, what does DNA look like?

Checking for recording ...

Science project time came again, and my youngest son wanted to know what DNA looks like. He read some explanations of genetics and DNA for kids. We also found instructions on how to extract DNA from a strawberry, and they were safe and easy enough that he could do all the work himself after I gathered the needed materials. Check out the project and pictures below.
