Chemistry

Science

• The child learned about the properties of matter, such as solids, liquids, and gases.
• They learned the concept of chemical reactions and how substances can change when they react with each other.
• They explored the periodic table and learned about different elements and their symbols.
• They learned about the importance of safety precautions and how to handle chemicals responsibly.

For continued development, the child can further explore the world of chemistry by conducting simple experiments at home using household items. They can also create models of atoms using different materials or even try their hand at making homemade slime or volcano eruptions. Encouraging scientific curiosity and providing opportunities for hands-on exploration will help solidify their understanding of the concepts learned in this activity.
