The Bouncy Egg

A fun, simple and effective investigation with eggs.

All you need is two eggs, cider or white wine vinegar and two clear containers.

The experiment needs to be left for 18 to 24 hours.

All my programmes are designed to motivate children to ask questions, to predict, to reason.

This video is in two parts. The first explains how to set up the experiment and asks children to predict WHAT they think will happen to the eggs. Then they do the experiment and try to think WHY it happened.

The second part is the explanation put very simply. I suggest you stop the video between the two parts.

Adult supervision is required

Magic with Lizzy Witch

Lizzy uses her magic to make a bouncy egg but is it really magic ?

The Lizzie Witch magic posts are a fun way to introduce simple science investigations and basic concepts to young children.

Lizzie encourages them to be inquisitive and to find things out for themselves BUT all activities should be supervised by an adult.
