Have you ever started out doing one thing and ended up with something totally different? That's what happened when we tried an exploding milk experiment. It started off as a completely innocent experiment using milk, food coloring and dish soap and ended up as a bubbly, fizzy adventure. We did all of these activities at once but you can split them up over a series of days culminating with this bubbling milk activity. If you are in the mood for more science activities for kids, try our Making Color Disappear experiment. You will need: MilkDish soap in a small cupFood coloringTooth picksBaking

We love to have a Simple Science Experiment every Friday. This is an easy way to boost practice of experimentation, exploration, and observation in the classroom. Plus, they are SUPER fun and allow for student participation! Come see some of our favorites and grab a recording sheets for your kiddos to use! Simple Science for Primary Kiddos Once we're ready to introduce science lessons and experiments in the classroom, we love using this activity! We start with reading the book What is Science? It's simple and easy to read for primary kiddos. Here are some more fun reads for introducing science exploration in the classroom! Click on the links to grab them on Amazon! (affiliate links) What is Science? Cece Loves Science Ada Twist Scientist Goodnight Lab We also pull out this Learning Resources Science Kit! It's got lots of common tools a scientist uses and is great for displaying as we make the chart! These tools can be added to the chart and you can give kiddos a visual by showing them the tools. Kiddos can also hold the tools and explore with the tools. Grab this Science Kit on Amazon! (affiliate link) This kit make a great addition to a Science Center for display all year! We like to set all of the tools our for kiddos to continue to explore. We also grab tools from this kit all through the year as we do our Simple Science experiments each Friday! Simple and Fun Experiments! Click each picture to visit the blog post for the experiment. You can read about how to set up the experiment, find a paired read aloud book, and grab a recording sheet to use with your kiddos!

This was a collaborative project I did with one of the Science teachers at my school. He was teaching his kids about food chains and wanted an art project to go along with it. He found THIS image via Pinterest as initial inspiration for the project. UPDATE: The poster was designed by art director and illustrator Dhanashri Ubhayakar for the magazine Sanctuary Asia, an Indian nature and wildlife conservation magazine. I turned the digital image into a collage project using construction paper. I used 12 x 18" construction paper. Have a background colour (in my case, turquoise). Then start with your largest animal (the top predator, I guess... the Science teacher explained this part to the kids, heh, heh) I folded my paper vertically so I only had to draw half the polar bear and it also made it symmetrical. I collaged on the eyes, nose and teeth from scraps of paper. Then make all the other animals slightly smaller... My messy workspace below.... Ok- once you have all the animals (our students were required to have 3 animals plus a plant) it's time to layer them and glue it all together. This took some fiddling and such, but I found it easiest to lay it all out and then start from gluing the smallest middle part first (the plant- I lost my mini tree) and work your way up. I used dots of white glue. It went faster than using a glue stick. Grade 7 student results!

Most kids have a natural curiosity about the world and the way things work. That makes it easy to teach them some basic science concepts in fun hands-on ways. In the past we have done a Magnet Exploration which proved to be very engaging. Today, I am sharing another one of our Easy Experiments. Making Color Disappear seems very magical for kids, but there are some scientific concepts at work. For more fun with color check out our Outdoor Color Station. Easy Experiments You will need: See through cups Water Food Coloring Bleach Pipette Like most easy experiments, this requires adult supervision. I would
Get messy, light some stuff on fire, and use food products in ways they were never intended in these kid-friendly at-home science experiments.
With Fall on it's way for my friends in the northern hemisphere and spring down here I thought I would share this easy experiment any one can do any time of the year. Earlier this year Sir N and I spent a delightful day out at Barwon Waste Management Education Centre where we helped in an experiment called Compost in a Bottle. This is a wonderful experiment you can do at home and watch over the year to see what happens. You will Need Strips of news paper Blood & Bone (garden fertilizer) Bread Grated Carrot Grated Potato Soil Two or Three 2.25 Lt cold drink bottles (we used Coke bottles) Method Clean the plastic bottles well. Cut the bottle around the top leaving a small part to act as a hinge. You will need fruit, vegetables, soil, paper and fertilizer. In order to make all the bottles identical I chose to grate carrots and vegetables and use a cup measure when placing into the bottles. Follow the recipe (a picture recipe) Layer soil, vegetables, fertilizer (only a tablespoon per layer) and paper. Each bottle needs to be identical. Spray each layer with a little bit of water. Do NOT soak. Only a fine mist spray. The original experiment required two identical bottles. We made a third bottle without fertilizer because we wanted to know how well compost worms work in comparison to fertilizer in a compost bin. When the bottles are full tape them shut. Mark the side of the bottle with a permanent pen showing the different layers. Place one bottle on the windowsill, and one in a dark cupboard. We placed the one with the worms in the dark cupboard as well. Seven Months Later ... Left - Windowsill bottle Middle - Dark Cupboard with worms Right - Dark Cupboard.
