Sandpit Science
Here at BestStart Opihi we have been having fun exploring science in the sandpit. Making sand pit volcanos is a great opportunity to support team work, exploration and to test working theories. Our tuakana/ older tamariki/children enjoy leading this experiment and testing different concoctions of baking soda, vinegar, dish soap and dye. The older children share ideas with their younger peers, passing on their knowledge. When children work together, they can create a larger sand volcano.
