Ducklings Science Experiment: Leaping Dolphins

Last thursday we had circle time and talked about the ocean animal dolphins as well as singing the animal songs. Later on, we made a leaping dolphin with a CD, strings, tissue box, cardstock, scissors, glue, paper, tape, cord and two plastic water-bottle caps. The children were participating the whole procedure of making it, they helped to glue and tape as well as holding the string and put the CD inside the tissue box and stabilize it. At last, we finally successfully got a leaping dolphin and when you pull the string and then the CD will start turning and shifting so it made the scene of the dolphins on the CDs moving and swimming in the blue see painted on the tissue box! All the children showed their smile when they saw such a scene after their group work!

We have been working on the following Lpfö goals:
To develop their cognitive skills.
To develop their creative skills.
To develop their ability to build and create using different techniques and materials.
To develop their early science skills.
