I guess you've heard that we've had a bit of rain in these parts lately. Lots of rain calls for a bit of creativity with indoor activities to combat that old monster we all know and abhor: boredom. We finally dug into a science experiment kit and found some fun. While the girls loved the crystals and the "explosions," my favorite was the discovery of non-Newtonian fluid created with simple corn starch and water.
Is it a solid or is it a liquid? Hmmmm. . . neither, its ooze.
I'll never look at Thanksgiving gravy the same again . . .

We did that experiment not too long ago. I think I had more fun than the kids!
ReplyDeleteMy children have always loved these kind of experiments. They love the volcano one you make with baking soda. Also putting a mentos in a coke bottle.
