In this series of Play School, children and their carers are invited to marvel at the amazing results of mixing ingredients as they experience the joy of discovering the wonders of science and the natural world. Young children are extremely inquisitive. They are natural explorers of the world around them. Their open minds and innate curiosity drives them to ask questions and explore possibilities. Importantly, experimenting enables children to learn through their senses, to problem solve, and to learn about themselves and the world around them in a hands on way. Experimenting is an opportunity to "find out" without worrying about getting it right. When children experiment they make discoveries on their own and this builds self esteem. Come along as we experiment with items in the laundry basket laboratory, test out some balloon rockets, see what floats and what sinks and make a fizzy volcano painting! Plus, we see children do their own experiments through the windows - with light, bubbles, slime, liquids - and have a fizzy wizzy science party!
