Sink or Float | NPT3
Season 2022
Episode 27
It's fun to learn about new concepts in a hands-on way. This family does just that with a sink-or-float activity you can try at home. Talk about what sinking and floating actually mean. Then experiment with different objects. Ask your kids to make a prediction about each item before putting them in a bucket or sink of water. You can record your predictions, results and observations on a chart.
