Materials: 1. 3 white carnations 2. Scissors 3. Food coloring 4. 3 small cups 5. Water Steps: 1. First, get the 3 small cups and add 3/4 of the cup with water. 2. Next, in each cup at 8 drops of food coloring of your choice. (Make sure to pour different colors for in each cup to create more multi colorful flowers) 3. Then, snip the last centimeter of the carnations' stem and place each flower in the colored water. 4. Finally, wait for 2-4 days to see the results. Lesson: Transpiration is when plants draw water up through its stem, and , thus, the water evaporates from the leaves' stomata. As the water evaporates, it creates pressure that brings more water into the plant. Since the water had color, it made the flowers become that color.
Materials: 1.granulated sugar 2.food coloring 3.stovetop safe container 4. Cream of tartar 5.candy thermometer 6.light corn syrup 7.water 8.adult 9.aluminum foil pan 10.measuring utensils
Steps: 1. First, add one and three forts of sugar in the stove top safe container 2. next, add 1 cup of water 3.then, add half a cup of corn syrup 4.next, add 1/8 teaspoon of cream of tartar 5.then, combine all the ingredients 6. Next, slowly heat the heat the mixture at a low boil while stirring 7.then, keep the mixture add a low boil and please a candy thermometer in the container. 8.next, keep the mixture boiling until the temperature reaches 300 Fahrenheit 9.then, pour the mixture into the foil pan 10.next, add food coloring to the pan and spread the colors 11.finally, let the mixture cool until hardened.
Lesson: This experiment is used in candy making. When you add corn syrup, it prevents the sugar from re-crystallizing. The cream of tartar separates the sugar crystals into glucose and fructose, which are simple sugars. The light that passes through the translucent sugar glass will take the colors from the food coloring you choose

Octopuses are smart! They play with toys, pull off daring escapes, and are masters of disguise. But they’re also smart in a lot of ways that the human mind probably can’t comprehend. For example, they basically have independent brains in their arms!

Hi everyone! I'm Ashley P. and I'm a Girl Scout who wants to make a difference in the world. Currently, I've been working on my Gold Award Project, which is a project where Girl Scouts solve an issue in their community to earn the Gold Award. The Gold Award is the highest award a Girl Scout can achieve. In my project, I'm addressing the issue on how there are a lack of women in the STEM field by creating a program to do fun science experiments with younger girls. Also, I constructed this blog for parents and children to do exciting and simple experiments with their kids to spark a passion in this subject like what happened to me as a child. I hope you enjoy and try to accomplish the experiments I post! Also, please have adult supervision while completing these experiments.
