Exploring Cold

We have been exploring adjectives lately, so today we talked about "cold".  Last night I stuck some trays of water into the freezer and today they are "cold".  This was an exciting sensory activity.

First, we felt the ice and talked about it, then we started to sprinkle some salt.  The ice started to crackle and pop.  Next, we added some color and we talked about all the different colors.









  
We really enjoyed this activity, next time I might use squirt bottles and spray the colors on.

  2. How fun ! What a great idea to introduce the salt...I wouldn't have thought of that. I just discovered your site, and can't wait to look around.
