Silly Science! Learn At-Home Experiments
Do your kids ask a bazillion and one questions about ... uh ... everything? How do rockets fly? Why does it rain? How much do elephants weigh? And on and on and on ... all sorts of scientific subjects cross their curious minds, and luckily you don't need a textbook (or a more advanced degree) to teach them.
Just follow the lead of one of our favorite characters, the Cat in the Hat, who makes science fun in the new PBS KIDS show The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That! You'll love how the Cat takes kids on silly science adventures (along with the Fish and Thing 1 and Thing 2), and your little ones will have a blast learning right along with the big kid ... that's YOU!
Here are some silly fun science experiments to try at home:
