Weekly Kids Activities Newsletter:
Science activities to wow kids
Hi. It’s Sumari from EasyHealthyKids.com.
Last Christmas at Playcenter we booked an magician to come in and entertain the kids…and boy…did they enjoy it!
Science activities remind me of magic, and my kids enjoy it almost just as much.
For this week's newsletter I've selected 4 easy and awesome science activities for kids.
Puffy paint
The first time I saw puffy paint in action was when I first started Playcentre with my son. All the kids were excited and engaged with the puffy paint activity.
It was also fun microwaving the puffy paint and seeing what it looks like.
This is a simple activity that does not require a lot of supplies.
Sunscreen painting science activity
I bet kids would be more willing to wear sunscreen after doing this activity. It really shows them the effects of sunscreen and the sun. Plus it's a simple and low supply activity that's educational too.
Fizzy cloud dough
This activity takes “boring old” cloud dough and elevates it into a fizzing sensation.
You add baking soda to the dough and then, after playing with it, your kids squirt vinegar onto it to make it fizz.
Kids balancing scale game
This activity is sure to engage kids for a while and is easy to make. Its a lot of fun to see which objects are heavier than the other.
