Why life buoy floats on water while stone sinks? Why can a cargo vessel float? Do you know why water spill out once you step into the bath tank? All these daily questions are science-related.
Kids will conduct a number of experiments about floatation with different objects in various size, weight, and forms of materials in the workshop to understand the physical law of buoyancy - the Archimedes Principle. You will further construct a pedal boat made of foam wooden parts and a gear box to apply the theory. Sail your paddle boat at the water tank before you take it home for battle. (End-product can be taken away).
