Why This Matters

Curiosity begins with simple questions. This activity helps children observe and predict outcomes.

  • Household objects (spoon, cork, toy, etc.)


What to Do

Ask your child to guess whether each object will sink or float. Test each one together.


What to Ask Your Child

  • Why do you think this will float?

  • What do you notice?


What Your Child Is Learning

  • Observation

  • Prediction

  • Early scientific thinking
