Sparks Experiment!

Of course the Sparks are back in action after the winter break too! Our first meeting was all about Chinese new year but we were so busy I got no pictures! No worries though as we had a great time this week starting our Exploring and Experimenting Keeper.

Today the Sparks were learning about flight. We brought in a model airplane to show them and talked about all of the parts of the plane. Afterwards we made paper airplanes and had a race to see which one could go the furthest!

Next we made balloon rockets and released them along string tracks. The girls loved how they wooshed forward as the air escaped the balloon.

Finally we inflated a whole bunch of balloons and played group keep up. The girls had an amazing time with this meeting and learned a lot about gravity, flight and propulsion.
