Valentine science experiments
This valentine science activities preschool is fairly easy and inexpensive and can be mess free too! There are a few options for this experiment, the first being if you want the liquid to be colored or not. We added red food coloring to ours so that it would be even more Valentine’s Day themed, but this optional. I would suggest doing a light color so that you are able to see through the liquid and see the dancing hearts. Even though red is not necessarily a light color, we only did a little so it was more of a pink color.Â
Supplies:
- A Clear Jar
- White Vinegar
- Conversation Hearts
- Baking Soda
- Food Coloring (Optional)
- Glitter (Optional)
Valentines Day Activities
Start by filling your jar ž the way full with white vinegar. Add in your food coloring and mix well.Â
Drop in the conversation hearts and even glitter if you want.
Valentine’s day science experiments
When you are all ready to try your valentine science, add a TBS of baking soda. You donât need much for a reaction to occur.
At first you will just see a bunch of bubbles and âeruptionâ. The bubbles will settle and then watch. The hearts will slowly but surely start moving. Then after another minute or so, youâll have dancing hearts in a jar.
How amazing is this valentines science preschool? This is the perfect valentine’s day science activities for kids. Even older kids will be amused by this!Â
Valentines Day Activities for Preschoolers
Once we watched our hearts dance for a while inside the jar, we decided to move it to a pie pan. We wanted to see what would happen and to our excitement we learned that they still move, even with only an inch of vinegar. They moved in various directions instead of just up and down as they did in the jar. It was fun to watch! So grab some simple materials from your pantry and try this valentines day chemistry this February!
