Sink or float

We had some very warm weather a few weeks ago and I decided that it was time to get out the water table for some fun.  I collected objects from around the house and we did a sink or float science experiment.
The loot

We made predictions if the object would sink or float based on how it felt.  The girls put in the appropriate bin.

Lila was very good at making predictions.  She gave me a valid reason for each decision that she made.

Testing out our predictions-We discussed why the objects were sinking or floating.


After we were done, I added bubbles to the water just for fun.


We also did some painting that day.  I have a large piece of plexi-glass drilled into our deck right off of our kitchen.  Sometimes I hang paper but other time they just paint right on the glass.  We then wash it off for more fun!  I love it!  The girls can paint outside while I am cooking or cleaning the kitchen.


It was clearly game day!  Go Boilers!

  1. Pre-K is going to be way too easy for Lila and Sophia too when it's her time. Can they sing the alphabet in Spanish too?
