Home Science Experiments Made Fun and Easy
Home science experiments are great for rainy or dreary days when the kids are restless and looking for something to do. If you take a look around, you will see that you have a lot of things that can be used to experiment with. For example, you could have your kids test different things to drop eggs onto, such as a couch, a bed, a carpet, a stuffed animal to see which will accept the egg without it breaking. Unfortunately this experiment can often result in a mess!
Cleaner home science projects might be to see if you can make an egg fit through the neck of a bottle that is smaller than the egg. For this you will need a hardboiled egg, a glass with a mouth just slightly smaller than the egg, a 3″ x 3″ piece of newspaper and a match. Remove the shell from the egg and set it on the mouth of the bottle to see that it does not fit through. Then, fold the piece of newspaper into a strip that can be dropped into the bottle.
