Soaking Flowers In Highlighter Fluid Try This At Home: Flower Science Experiment For Kids Top Image

Materials: 1. Water 2. A clear plastic bottle with a cap 3. Dish washing soap 4. Glitter Steps: 1. First, fill the bottle until it reaches 3 quarters full 2. Next, add 3 drops of dish washing soap in the bottle. 3. Then, sprinkle in 3 pinches of glitter. 4. Next, put the cap on tightly 5. Finally, turn the bottle upside down. And hold it by the neck. Quickly, spin the bottle in a circular motion for 10 seconds and stop to see a mini tornado in your bottle. Lesson: When you spin the bottle, it creates a water vortex. The water is spinning around the center of the vortex because of centripetal force. Centripetal force is an inward force directing an object or fluid towards the center of its circular path. Examples of natural vortexes are tornadoes, hurricanes, and waterspouts.

Materials: 1. A D size battery 2. Paper clips 3. 3 feet of thin coated copper wire 4. A 3 inch large iron nail

Steps: 1. First, leave 8 inches of wire at one end and wrap most of the rest of the wire on the nail ( do not overlap the wires). 2. Next, leave 8 inches of wire at the other end of the nail. 3. Then, remove an inch of the plastic coating from both ends of the wire and attach one end of the wire to one end of the battery and the other wire to the other end of the battery. 4. Finally, put the nail near the paper clips and it should pick them up!

Lesson: Magnets that cannot be turned off like ones on our refrigerators are called permanent magnets. Since the magnet we made can be turned off and on, it is known as an electromagnet. They run on electricity and are only magnetic when the electricity is flowing through the wires, which has the molecules in the nail attract to the metal paper clips.

Materials: 1. Food Coloring 2. Liquid Dish Washing Soap 3. 3 Tablespoons of Warm Water 4. 1 Tablespoon of Dry Yeast 5. ½ cup of 20-volume hydrogen peroxide from a hair salon 6. Empty 16 ounce Plastic Bottle 7. Small Cup 8. Safety Goggles 9. Tray

Steps: 1. First, put on your safety goggles and place a tray in front of you. 2. Next, pour the hydrogen peroxide in the bottle. (Make sure to have an adult complete this step) 3. Then, add 8 drops of any food coloring of your choice in the bottle. 4. Next, add 1 tablespoon of liquid dish soap into the bottle and swish it to have the materials mix. 5. Then, combine the warm water and yeast together in a separate small cup and mix for 30 seconds. 6. Finally, place the bottle in the tray and pour the yeast water mixture into the bottle.

Lesson: While doing this experiment, foam appears having each tiny foam bubble filled with oxygen. The yeast acted as a catalyst or helper to remove the oxygen from hydrogen peroxide. If you touch the bottle, you notice that it is warm. That means your experiment made a reaction called exothermic reaction because it creates heat.

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.

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!
