Fun Fact: According to the Environmental Protection Agency, 97% of all earth’s water is salt water, while only 3% of the earth’s water is considered to be fresh.
Join us to learn about the density of salt and fresh water and what happens to water when salt, baking soda, or sugar is added. We’ll even learn about independent, dependent, and control variables in this fun, easy experiment, too!
- When:
- Sunday December 11, 2022
- 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM) (Must register by Wednesday December 5, 2022

- A Zoom link will be provided upon registration
Materials in the learning box to be delivered prior to the session will include:

Water from the sink is fine, and you’ll need a clear work station (kitchen table or clean sink will work). Registration by the deadline is required to allow enough time to assemble and deliver everyone’s Learning Box in time!
