The children guessed what liquid would be inside the balloons and what would happen to the contents once the balloon was popped. Some balloons were liquid and some were frozen solid! The children also described what they could see and feel during this experiment. We have challenged your little ones to find something solid in their freezer at home, please support them with this and send us a picture with what your little one has found so we can share their discoveries with the class.
