Easy Christmassy Science- Week 2

Did you try any of our easy Christmas science activity ideas last week? Are you ready for more?

Day 8

First up is this fun STEM Challenge helping the elves make a pulley, to make lifting Christmas presents easier.

Introduce the concept of chemical reactions with this fizzy elf lab. This was a big hit at a school Christmas fair recently.

Children can experiment using different amounts of baking soda and vinegar to find the perfect fizzy combination!

Warm up the cold evenings with an easy hot chocolate investigation. Try to find a way to make the marshmallows melt the fastest.

How about a Christmassy LEGO maze? This is great for practising design skills. A magnet version works well, too.

Have you made a lava lamp before? These fun Christmas versions are some of our favourites. An elf lamp would look great too.

Inspiration Laboratories has some more fun, fizzy science ideas.

Last up for this week is this brilliant candy cane themed sensory tray from Imagination Tree. Why not combine it with our candy cane goo for a candy cane themed afternoon?

Don’t forget to pop back for more easy Christmas Science next week.

If you’re still looking for Christmas gifts I have some great ideas for STEM stocking fillers including electronics kits, and DIY science kits!
