My daughter actually inspired this post.  She accidentally dropped the ipod in the tub one day.  Instead of telling us that she dropped it in the tub, she searched the internet for answers to solve her problem. (She thought she would be in serious trouble).  Love when the children use the internet for things beside watching videos.  She found this experiment online.  She put it in brown rice for three days. She covered the entire iPod. After three days, she put it in the refrigerator for one day.  Then, she took it out of the refrigerator and removed it from the rice.  Guess what? It actually turned on!
