Ocean In a Bottle Experiment!

Good morning!

Have you been to the beach yet? Here is a fun experiment for you to do with your preschoolers today: make an ocean in a bottle!

Here is the link with full instructions: http://happyhooligans.ca/ocean-in-bottle/. The photo evidence is impressive, but watching the bubbles and waves move in person is definitely more fun. Enjoy!

Balloon Inflation Experiment!

T.G.I.F. to you all and it seems like a perfect Friday for another science-themed craft!

This craft teaches kids simple science experiments using ingredients or supplies that already exist in the kitchen. I found this inspiration on http://www.sciencebob.com/experiments/fizzinflator.php, and the idea is to combine baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and vinegar (acetic acid) to create carbon dioxide (CO2).

Also, there's less clean up compared to a homemade volcano! Good luck on your experimenting and have fun with it!
