From the title I was expecting an usual pendulum experiment and no surprises, but I remembered a previous video about mixing hot and cold water, so I keep watching and got a surprise.
"Perhaps you should put a small part of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7kRjHMzK5A&t=6m53s at the beginning of the video as a preview of the final result. "
Something like the movies that show a small part of an important scene at the beginning as a teaser.
It's difficult to try it at home because I have a 3yo that is too impatient. She would love something like this, but also cause a big mess that will be impossible to clean.
I am a scientist mum of twins and a science educator. I created a series of videos with quick STEM educational activities for young kids and parents/educators to watch and play together, in parallel to the video. I only use household items and aim for very very low cost & quick preparation so you can do it together with your little ones avoiding long boring preparations! The videos are playfully designed encouraging kids to feel happy and excited for science activities so they can have fun and learn:)
Do you think such activity would work for your family? What can I improve further to my videos/ activities? What would you advice me?
Thank you so much
