Learning cannot only be done at school. In
fact, it can also be done at home as well. All that you need to do is to have
an idea on what science crafts you can do with your children. For sure, it
would also be a great form of family bonding, which would strengthen your
relationship with them as they learn. Of course, buying a baby musical
instruments from Tiny Tiny Shop Shop ora kids art table would also help
unleash the creativity within them.
The floating egg
An egg typically sinks at the bottom if you
drop it in a glass of water. However, the results would be different if salt is
added in this simple yet fun experiment. All you have to do is to get a glass
and fill half of it with water. Then, pour lots of salt and afterwards, pour
water until it is nearly full but make sure not to disturb the mixture of water
and salt at the bottom. Then, gently place the egg and allow your kids to witness
some kind of magic right in front of them.
The magical water
To start with this one, prepare all the
materials including food coloring, water bleach and two plastic cups(clear) and
organize them on your kids art table. Allow your kids to choose the color that
they want. In one plastic cup, pour water of about three-quarters of it then
add a few drops of the food coloring that your kids have selected. Mix it
thoroughly. On the other plastic cup, pour some water of about one-quarter of
it and add some bleach on it. Now, ask your child to slowly pour the water and
bleach mixture to the water and food coloring mixture. Your kids would surely
be curious to know how the water became clear again and helps promote arts and
crafts for toddlers. Also, this experiment needs to be done under the
supervision of adults in order to prevent the kids from drinking it.
The sunscreen experiment
Who said that sunscreen could only be used
for protecting our skin from the harmful rays of the sun? You can also use it
for your kids to learn something valuable. You need to prepare a black
construction paper and a sunscreen, even the one that you are no longer using.
Pour some sunscreen on the construction paper and then ask your child to smear
it but don’t let him/her smear it on the entire paper. Afterwards, place it
outside or somewhere where there is direct sunlight. After a few hours leaving
it like that, bring your child with you and observe how the areas in the
construction paper where the sunscreen was not applied on fades.
See? There are a lot of science crafts that
you can do on your art table. Therefore, don’t limit your child’s learning
potential. Allow him/her to do something that would be beneficial for their
growth and development. Let their imagination run wild as you allow them to
learn even at the convenience of your own home through buying art crafts and ride on toys for kids from Tiny Tiny Shop Shop.
