Science Experiment



The Nappy Experiment




                                    How does a nappy keep the babies bottom dry?




                                        Tuakana was facinated by the materials found inside a babies nappy - fluffy cotton and very small crystals




                                         Amindeep cut the nappy open and pulled out the inside padding, separating the crystals and fluffy cotton into a ziplock plastic bag




                                         Once we put the crystals in a transparant cup, the boys and girls were interested to see how many teaspoons of water could be added to absorb the crystals





                                         To make our learning more exciting the children took home their cup of wet crystals and added food colouring




                                          When the senior students did the same experiment they had a snow ball fight outside on the grass field, which looked like a lot of fun.


Science is captivating, engaging, delightful, educational and compeling. A big thank you to Mr Raj for suggesting such a cool experiment.

    I like how you have made a Nappy Science Experience! I was wondering if you guys forgot your introduction! You guys could go and edit it back. I like how you have put some pictures in. Probably we will try this.

  6. Hi Glen Taylor School. I was really interested in the nappy experiment. I enjoyed the part when you put the crystals and fluff in the bag and pulled out the fluff from the nappies. What was your favourite part of the experiment? By Paige.
