             Science T.I.M.E.               Science Experiments for Kids

Science experiments for kids are a way to teach children about how things work in the world. This is not a difficult task since children are little scientist by nature. They make observations, predictions, and conclusions on a daily basis. All we need to do is direct them by exposing them to simple hands-on science experiments.

The Six Foundations for Preschool Science:
In order to give children a well-rounded view of the world around them, we need to expose them to the following six components:
Animals, human beings, plants and soil, water, light and air.

When my son and I do experiments at home I use this 'lab report' as a guideline:

The Preschool Lab Report
  1. Hypothesis - Any question the child might have.
  2. Prediction - Ask them what they think may be the answer.
  3. Equipment and Procedure - Help the child determine what you'll have to do together to find the answer.
  4. Results -  Discuss with the child what they observed.
  5. Conclusion - Determine whether the hypothesis was correct and what is the meaning behind their findings.
Sound complicated? It's actually very simple. Here is a sample:
  1. Will the coin sink or float?
  2. I think the coin will sink.
  3. Let's put water in a bowl and put the coin in.
  4. The coin sank.
  5. I think it sank because it is heavier/denser than the water.
I divided the experiments by categories. Click on each one for easy experiment ideas:
  1. Air
  2. Animals
  3. Humans
  4. Light
  5. Plants
  6. Water
