TURN YOUR KITCHEN INTO A SCIENCE LAB!

7/19/2024

 
Try this at home: turn your kitchen into a science lab! Simple experiments like making slime or baking soda volcanoes can spark a lifelong love for science.

Engaging in kitchen science activities is a fantastic way to introduce kids to the wonders of chemistry and physics, using everyday items you already have at home. Here are a few fun and educational experiments to try:

Baking Soda Volcano: Mix baking soda and vinegar in a small container to create a fizzy, bubbling "eruption." This classic experiment demonstrates an acid-base reaction and the release of carbon dioxide gas.

Rainbow Milk: Add a few drops of food coloring to a plate of milk, then dip a cotton swab in dish soap and touch it to the milk. Watch as the colors swirl and dance, illustrating the interaction between fat molecules and soap.

Oobleck: Mix cornstarch and water to make a substance that acts like a liquid when poured and a solid when pressure is applied. This experiment explores the properties of non-Newtonian fluids.



At Kiddie Science, we believe that science can be explored everywhere, even (especially) in your own home. These simple experiments not only provide hours of fun but also lay the foundation for a deep understanding and appreciation of scientific principles.

​
So, roll up your sleeves, gather your ingredients, and turn your kitchen into a mini science lab!
