My Ice Observation

Explore vocabulary and science with your child by observing changeable states using ice!

Directions:
1. First, make some colored ice by freezing some water
colored with a drop or two of food coloring.

2. Once the ice is frozen, take it out and put it on a small plate.

3. Have your child look at the cube and draw a picture of the
ice in this FROZEN state in the first column.

4. Leave the ice cube out for 15-30 minutes or until the cube
is partially thawed.

5. Have your child draw a picture of her second observation


in the second column.

6. Talk to your child about the changes she sees. Work with
her on comparision words: is the cube bigger/smaller?
wetter/dryer? Is there more/less water on the plate?

7. Repeat again in another 15-30 minutes or until the cube


is mostly thawed.
