10 Hands On Science Experiments for Kids

My kids love to do hands on science experiments at home!  There is something so empowering about causing a reaction in an experiment or suddenly grasping a science concept.  It gives kids confidence as a learner and is just plain fun!

 

1.  Air Pressure Experiment:  Make it easy for kids to see how air pressure works with this fun activity from Kids Activities Blog.

2.  Floating Egg Science Experiment:  Fantastic Fun and Learning experimented to see what would make an egg float and sink.

3.  Does it Dissolve Science Experiment: We pulled items out of the pantry to test which ones would dissolve in water.

4.  How to Make Square Bubbles:  Teach Beside Me used pipe cleaners and straws to make square bubbles.

5.  Cornstarch and Water Science Experiment:  The classic is a liquid or is it a solid (or both!) messy science activity from School Time Snippets.

6.  How to Make a Cloud in a Bottle:  We made an actual cloud appear in a bottle!  This one definitely makes an impression on kids.

7.  Fireworks in a Glass Experiment:  Science Sparks is full of fun science activities like this fireworks in a glass experiment.

8.  Lime Juice and Baking Soda Experiment:  Acid-base reactions are a childhood must do!  Instead of the classic vinegar use lime juice! A new twist on an classic experiment that smells great.
