Ever wonder what’s at the end of a rainbow? This week Little Edisons read Rainbow by Marion Dane Bauer and make our own “walking” rainbows, learning about color transfer and capillary action. Then, we talk about light refraction and why things look colorful in certain lights. miSci’s Little Edisons program, for kids ages 3 to 5, is […]

Continuing our exciting rainbow conversation, Little Edisons read What Makes a Rainbow? by Betty Ann Schwartz, then use simple chemical reactions to create their own fizzing rainbows. We talk about chemistry and use our five senses to create scientific hypotheses for our rainbows. miSci’s Little Edisons program, for kids ages 3 to 5, is fun way to […]
