Little Scientists 👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

Today in the discovery room, we have had very busy little scientists!

Through creative and investigative play, we have been exploring cause and effect in different ways at the science area.

Some children used the pipettes to experiment with colour mixing…

 

”it looks like cola now!”

Some children loved pouring, filling and transporting the water, being creative in their methods…

 

 

The children showed fantastic control while handling the water, taking their time not to spill it.

 

“now it’s lot of little ones”

”nice and slow. Because you don’t want to spill it”

The children have had so much fun exploring the different resources at the science table and have been super creative in their play, developing their problem solving skills. Great work everybody 👍💡👩‍🔬👨‍🔬

Bubbles bubbles and more bubbles

At Cart Mill we have been having lots of fun with bubbles.

“How do you make giant bubbles”

Some of the children wanted to make giant bubbles. So we decided to experiment to see what we could use to make giant bubbles.

“how about that hola hoop?”

We mixed some water and washing up liquid and used our hola hoop, but our bubbles just kept popping.

“I think we are going to have to look up a special recipe.”

We used the internet to find a recipe to make giant bubbles. We also watched some video’s of The amazing bubble man. The children were fascinated with the bubble tricks Louis Pearl created.

We made up our recipe and started experimenting trying out different techniques to creating some amazing bubbles.
