Raindrops keep falling on your head

Last week, we studied various kinds of weather. On Thursday, we learned about rain. We completed a cool science experiment using shaving cream, blue food dye, and water. The shaving cream represented a cloud. When the cloud fills with raindrops, the raindrops fall from the cloud to the ground (dye dripping through the shaving cream). We also made a neat "R" for the word rain.















Lots of cutting - great for improving our fine motor skills!

















Carefully gluing raindrops on the "R"


Add the cotton balls


Complete!
