Last week for our Sid the Science Kid activity we went on a texture hunt
around the house. We first talked about our skin. I showed Trevor
(and Mackenzie =) how skin is all over out bodies...on our hands, our
legs, and even our faces! We talked about how we are able to feel
things with our skin. Next, I brought out four items from around the
house that were examples of different kinds of textures...
If this activity sounds fun to you and your kids, check out this and other Sid the Science Kid
episodes!
Have you done a texture hunt or other fun science activity with your children? I'd love to hear about it!
Happy Exploring!
