Fun with marshmallows

By 4 Comments

I cannot believe we are halfway through the school holidays and halfway through Spectacular Summer Science.

Last week, we featured Reading Confetti and the fantastic slushy drinks. This week, we have a great marshmallow experiment from Fantastic Fun and Learning.

I loved the process of predicting what would happen and using knowledge from previous activities. My three would think this was great fun.

Have you got any candy experiments to share? Did you try our popping candy activity?

Have a wonderful weekend, and do pop back next week for more Spectacular Summer Science.

    Thanks so much for featuring this experiment. It led to a lot of curiosity about other materials and what would happen if they dissolved. The kids loved it!
