Science For Tots

04/28/2023

Hi everyone! Science For Tots moved from the Bay Area four years ago. We are now in Crescent City California. I am about to reach out to the community and see if there is any interest in bringing our program to our First Five Center. Please share my posts and help me bring this successful program here!

It’s summertime! What Science Experiments have you done this Summer? I did the Bouncy Egg with some kids age 5 to 8. Want to know how to do this experiment with your kids? Ask me!

Hi! An arts and crafts project:
1. Items needed:
Sand, large sheet of white paper, blue paint, paint brush, shells.

On the large sheet of paper put glue on the bottom page, smooth it out evenly. Pour sand on glue to make the seashore. Once dry add seashells to the sand. Once dry paint with blue paint above the sand to make the ocean!
Have fun!

Day 2: Seashells🐚🐚🐚
Collect seashells at the beach or purchase at Dollar Store (sometimes they have them in arts and crafts section or where the candles are) or Michaels or Hobby Lobby.
Sort shells. This is also good for developing Math Skills (by type, size, shape, or color). Count the shells in each category
Make a chart. Glue one of each shell and draw 2 columns. Use | lines for each one and then print the number next to it.

See you tomorrow!

It's Summertime and science is all around us. For the next week I will give you some ideas of things to do with your children. The first topic will be The Ocean. Only thing I ask is to share these posts with your friends!

Summertime and science is everywhere! Going to the beach? Look for feathers, rocks, wood, and shells. Collect them. Also bring back some sand. When you get home there is so much you can do to keep the fun and learning going. Stay posted and for the next week I will include an activity a day around this theme. Share with your friends. 🌞⛅️🚣🏊🏻‍♀️🌊🐚🕶

Summer is a great time to use water to teach science. Fill a kiddy pool with water or a dishpan. Grab some things from around the house, a ball, an elastic band (things that float and those that don't). Before putting the items in the water, ask your child to sort the items she thinks will float and things she doesn't think will float. Try it out!

Science For Tots has a new mission to reach out within the Communities of the San Francisco Bay Area as well as the East Bay Area. Our goal is to bring science to children in Public Libraries, Community Centers, Public Parks, Churches and schools. We will look into becoming a non profit and searching for Grants. We love what we do and wish to share this with children ages 2 to 8. Please pass this on and contact us if you are interested.

Tomorrow our class in Bay Point is going to learn all about apple trees, apples and even taste test 3 different kinds of apples. Yes, science is so much fun that you get to eat apples in a science class.
