Science Project Perfect For A Young Child

I have a wonderful science project for the young child or a child who may have a learning disability such as ADD. It is not complicated and they will be able to do it themselves and enjoy the outcome.

Make a hypothesis (This is your sentence about what you think is going to happen in the science project experiment.) about which solution you think will be worse for the egg shell and what you think will happen to it.

You can do this two ways but this is the easiest.

You will need the following

• 5 eggs


• 5 cups


• 1 cup coke or Pepsi


• 1 cup vinegar


• 1 cup water


• 1 cup tomato juice


• 1 cup milk

Take each of your cups and place a different liquid in each one. Place an egg into each solution making sure it is completely covered by the liquid in the glass.

Place them on a counter and leave it sit overnight.

In the morning remove each egg to a separate paper towel and write down your visual inspection of each one. This is a great way to make a graph to show each liquid. Now carefully use the paper towel to wipe off any excess residue from the shell. Examine the egg and its structure. Did any solution change the hardness of the egg shell? If so which one? If more than one liquid did what differences did you find in each one?

Now take 5 bowls and place water in them and put each egg separately into one of the containers and let sit on the counter the remainder of the day. In the evening remove each one again to a napkin. Did any soak up the water? If so which eggs sponged up water? Make sure you put the same amount of H2O in each bowl.

You can also do this project with two sets of cups and two sets of eggs and one set leave alone and the other set wipe with fluoride before putting into each solution and see if the fluoride protects the eggs. If so does it only do it with some liquids and not others or does it protect the shell from all solutions?.

Your child should enjoy doing this science project by themselves but you can always help to create positive family time.
