We actually created this model after discussing how hurricanes form. My oldest daughter wanted to do an experiment to see if she could make her own hurricane. Her brother was ready to add to it, and I love how many actual analogies they were able to make! They loved it so much that they repeated it almost every day for a week!
I'm sharing the entire experiment (set-up and everything!) in this short video...I hope you enjoy it! And -- just in case you are reading during nap time and have the volume muted -- I added captions too! Let me know what you think!
If you have trouble viewing it, you can click here and watch it on YouTube.
Like all models, this science experiment has its inherent strengths and weaknesses. Older children may enjoy discussing the limitations of models in science while they work on ways to overcome those weaknesses! What would your preschoolers add to the science experiment?
I may share at any of these parties!
