Warmer weather means lots of water play and, for us, that means plenty of simple water science experiments to try with the kids!
Since we’ve been homeschooling, I’ve learned that science doesn’t have to be a complicated subject to teach.
Many scientific concepts sound complicated (and really are amazingly intricate), but showing kids how they work doesn’t have to be complex.
Turns out that you can use a few household supplies and demonstrate how scientific principles work in a kid-friendly way!
And that’s why I’ve rounded up 40 easy water science experiments that would be great to share with kids – either indoors or outdoors!
Don’t miss our list of science experiments that you can do in just 15 minutes too!
