Ice and Salt Exploration

Let's explore more with melting. The night before this activity, pre-set up by making sure you have ice cubes. or even a sensory bin filled with water to freeze. You can add food dye to the cubes or block to give an added effect of color mixing while melting. When it's time for the set up, put out paint brushes and little bowls or containers filled with salt. Salt lowers the freezing point of the ice and will allow it to melt quickly. The children can sprinkle it on and use the paint brushes to spread it around and mix the colors!
