Freezing and Melting
Exploring Freezing and Melting Through Ice Balloons
We have been thinking about cold weather, ice and snow at Nursery. We filled balloons with water then talked about where we could put the balloons to change the water to ice. Some of the children suggested putting the balloons in the freezer and outdoors. The balloons in the freezer turned to ice first. The children loved exploring the ice. they talked about their observations. The ice balloons felt hard, cold and slippery. We talked about why they were melting in the Nursery environment. The interest led Frozen role play theme developed into small world play train and insta snow, which was a popular choice for the children!
