Provide a water table, goggles and small pool noodle blocks (create blocks by slicing a pool noodle into 3- or 4-inch pieces). Have the children create a splash by dropping the blocks in the water. Ask, “Why do you think the water makes a splash? How could you make the splash bigger?” Explore how the water moves the blocks.
