Keeping a toddler occupied is no easy task. Lately we’ve been occupying ourselves with little “science experiments”. We made ooey gooey goop, mini volcanoes and cloud sand. We mixed colors in water and observed which objects float and which ones sink. We made an egg float in the middle of water by adding salt. We made a hard boiled egg drop into a glass container using a match. And we practiced our measuring skills with cups, spoons, a funnel and a container of rice and beans of different sizes.
Cloud Sand: 8 parts flour to 1 part baby oil
Ooey Gooey Goop: cornstarch and water
Volcanoes: baking soda, vinegar, and food coloring (optional)
