Rainy Weather Simulation Activity for Toddlers
At Creative Spaces Preschool, they did a fun activity to help teach the children about rainy weather! The kids filled the top of a cup with shaving cream and then put droplets of dark blue water on top. As the shaving cream grew heavy with the water it began to, "Rain," just like how when clouds are full of water they release it as rain too!
