For Ryleigh's Kindergarten the last couple of days we have been working through the 5 senses (1 sense a day)... Here is a fun (quick) experiment/ lesson that we did. I took little cups and filled them with: salt water, sugar water, lemon water, unsweetened cocoa, and cocoa with sugar mixed in.... Braeden also partook in the lesson.... that is why there are so many cups! They did not know what they were tasting beforehand. By the end we had discussed: sweet, sour, salty and bitter.
Ryleigh taking a sip of the salty I think...
Hilarious! And by that... I mean for me....
Braeden didn't like the taste either...
Overall, Ryleigh liked the experiment... but was not interested in repeat tasting...

Fun! Isaac would have absolutely hated doing this though. It would have been tears for us! Love looking at your kids pics though :)
ReplyDeleteThat's always a fun experiment to do and lesson to teach. In fact, our next silly school song will be of the 5 senses.
ReplyDeleteI haven't done this lesson yet with my 4 year old but my 7 year old did it a few yrs ago and loved it...mostly because she loves to eat regardless...LOL
