All these science experiments are optional, but they are a lot of fun.

      Science Experiment  #1     "surface tension"

Can you float a paperclip or a coin on water?

Materials needed:  glass of water, paperclips, coins

Watch and follow along with the link to below to complete this experiment.

       Science Experiment #2  with Moby  "Float or Sink"

He doesn't exactly talk about the "surface tension" but he does come close when they show the canoe and how it is shaped.  The link may take you to CLEVER to sign in or you will need to go to BrainPop, Jr and watch the video "Sink or Float."    https://jr.brainpop.com/science/forces/sinkorfloat/

 

      Science Experiment #3  "Placing a balloon on a tack" 

To see "surface tension" explained better - try this experiment

Can you push down on a balloon while it is on a tack without the balloon popping?

-place a tack on the table, sharp point facing up

-push the balloon down on the tack

-What happens?   Next

-place a handful of tacks on the table, sharp points facing up

-now push the balloon down on the tacks

-What happens?   Watch the video to see how disbursing the surface over a larger area makes the balloon less likely to pop
