Preschool Winter Theme ~ Thursday

Today, was all about "ICE" I froze his dinosaurs in paper cups so he could play with them.

I also froze some water in the bottom of a milk jug. I wanted him to see the melting process.

So, we added some salt to help the melting along. You could immediately hear the ice start cracking. Way Cool!

Then, we added blue food coloring to see the cracks and melting path better.

See the Melting Path.

I didn't let him know what I was doing the night before, so he was so excited when I asked him to get his school out of the freezer. He played out on his table for a little while. He had some trucks and boats running over the ice. He cracked open the small cups of ice to free his dinosaurs. He had a fun, cold time.
