My daughter’s preschool teachers recently added a science component to the program she’s in, and if I had a nickel for every time she asked if we can do a science experiment, I would be a very rich woman.
Of course, I wasn’t overly interested in science when I was a kid, so I am not exactly full of ideas to entertain her with, but thanks to the wonderful world of Pinterest, I was able to find 25 fabulous science experiments for preschoolers for the 2 of us to do together.
And you know what?
Science is pretty fun!
