Science experiments with preschoolers are fun activity that will make preschooler know more about science. There are many science experiments can be done with preschooler. And of course every experiment can give new knowledge to the preschooler. Here the information about it.
Actually, there are so many benefits can be got by preschooler when they watch and do science experiments. Science experiments can be done while playing, so it will make preschoolers fun. This activity will allow preschooler to do exploration toward object around them. They also learn about the characteristic and all the symptoms that happen to the object.
Science experiments also allow preschoolers to use their five senses. All knowledge that has been got by preschoolers from science experiment can be used as new knowledge to think about other thing logically.
Choosing science experiment to be done with preschoolers should be easy and simple, but can add good input for preschoolers. Here some science experiments can be done with preschoolers:
Egg that Sink and Float on Water
For this experiment, things need to be prepared are egg, glass and salt. Here the steps are:
· Pour water into a glass, and then enter the egg into the glass. So it would seem that the egg will sink completely.
· Remove the eggs from the glass, then enter a few spoons of salt and stir it. Reinsert the egg and note that the current egg will float.
· Add more salt into the glass, and then it would seem that the egg will be floating up again.
This experiment shows the effect of density of water toward objects that get into the water. With this experiment, we can explain for example why ships can float on water, but the weigh about thousands of tons.
Fireproof Balloon
This experiment shows the characteristic of water as a heat conductor. For this experiment, things need to be prepared are balloon, candle and water. The steps of experiment as follow:
· Light a candle, and then blow the balloon. Place the balloon over a candle flame, then the balloon will burst. Do it carefully, balloons could burst and make shocked or injured.
· Take another balloon, and then fill it with water. Afterwards, blow the balloon and then place it over a candle flame. So this time the balloon will not burst.
Water-filled balloon will not burst because of the heat coming from the fire so that the water will be absorbed by the rubber surface of the balloon does not become too hot, so the balloon doesn’t burst. You can do the experiments above with preschooler. By doing science experiments with preschoolers, you will make preschoolers smarter and more creative than before.
Do Preschooler Need Science Experiments?
