airflow experiment

Science

• The child learned that air takes up space by observing how the balloon expanded when blown into.
• They discovered that air can move objects by observing how the windmill spun when placed in front of a fan.
• They learned that air can exert pressure by witnessing how a paper cup collapsed when the air was sucked out of it.
• The child also learned about the concept of airflow and how it affects objects in motion.

For continued development, encourage the child to explore different objects and observe how they interact with air. They can conduct more experiments using different materials and compare the effects of airflow on them. Encourage them to think of creative ways to harness the power of airflow, such as designing their own wind-powered toys or experimenting with paper airplanes.
