Kids Science Experiments:

Easy Home School Fun

We love kids science experiments in our home school! Easy experiments are the best way for kids to have fun and learn at the same time.

Our fun experiments will show you how to:

• Make a volcano explode
• Grow sugar crystals
• Have fun with silly putty
• Set up a home school archeological dig
• Dissect an owl pellet!

All these easy experiments are fun for kids and help awaken a sense of delight in the world around us.

You'll know from our free homeschooling curriculum that the foundation of all scientific knowledge is based on encouraging your child's curiosity about the world. So let's get going with some simple kids science experiments which are really easy and great fun.

How To Make A Volcano

Learning how to make a volcano is one of our favorite easy science experiments for home school.

We'll show you how to make a volcano erupt in two ways. Both are really simple and never cease to amaze, but if you try one of the diet coke and mentos science experiments - stand well back!

How To Make Slime

Our home school science experiments showing you how to make slime are easy to do and lots of fun for kids, if a little yucky! We'll show you two home school recipes for slime. The first uses borax but we'll also show you a simple way to have fun with a quicksand experiment using just corn starch.

Sugar Crystals

Growing sugar crystals is one of those easy kids experiments which is perfect for showing your kids how to make crystals and a great way to add more fun is to include some outdoor crafts and enjoy crystals in nature, as these wonderful snow crystals show.

Preschool Science Activities

The preschool kids science experiments we've done in our home school include some unusual ideas which older kids will enjoy. Try our simple:

• Home school archeological dig, hiding objects in a sand tray to be uncovered by a real archeologist
• Setting up a touch and feel box to put your hand inside - great fun!

Silly Putty Recipe

Our silly putty recipe is simple to learn how to make and one of those really easy science experiments to add to home school science. It's also great fun for kids. Our simple science experiments include fun ideas for ways to test the properties of silly putty, including trying to blow it up into a balloon.

Kids Owl Pellet Activity

Doing kids experiments which include dissecting an owl pellet might not be the first thing that comes to mind! But don't be put off; it's easy to get hold of owl pellets and they provide the best way I know to make owls fascinating and find out all sorts of fun home school science.

As you can see, there are lots of different kids science experiments you can try but they all have one thing in common - they're really simple and your kids will really enjoy them.
