Zach's been enjoying this newly discovered video tape series My First. They a set of tapes with colorful easy to follow guide for fun activities using stuff you have at home. They are great to introducing and exposing young ones to topics and concepts. He started with the My First Activities Video ones and, as always, had been doing crafts projects. These days he has been enjoying the My First Science Video.
Here are the pics of what we did.
The set up: 3 kinds of liquids, oil, syrup, and colored water one, and yesterday we did one of the experiments. He had lots of fun, and wanted to keep doing experiments. We are supposed to do another one today.
Observation
What's happening? The syrup stays at the bottom; the water sits in between the oil and the syrup.
Let's drop some stuff in and see what happens.
And here is what we learned (in my son's words): Some liquids are heavier than others. The thick and heavy sinks to the bottom. Water is not as heavy as syrup but lighter than oil.
I actually enjoyed the experience too!
My next project is making up a schedule of science experiments to do.
Have a great day, Joelle
