Festive experiments at home!
Do candies dissolve in oil? What will happen if we put a candy in vinegar? Can you make a “snowstorm” within a glass? How can you create colorful salt crystals? How will you turn a Christmas drawing into an electrical circuit?
Using simple yet festive materials, kids will perform experiments at home and discover the science of Christmas. They will have the opportunity to discover principles of Chemistry and Physics, such as solubility and electricity, in a fun way.
Gather the necessary materials, set up your work space, and get started.
