Preschool Weather Experiment – Why Clothes and Blankets Keep Us Warm
This
easy preschool weather experiment will teach your preschooler how warm our bodies are. This preschool weather activity will teach them that clothes and blankets help trap our body heat keep us warm during the winter. Finally, your preschooler will understand why they need to put on a jacket when they go outside. Or why they get cold when they kick their blankets off in the middle of the night. After doing this preschool weather experiment, you may never have to remind your preschooler to put their jacket on again.
What your Preschooler will Learn:
Our bodies are warm and produce a great deal of heat. When we put on clothes or cuddle beneath blankets, that heat is trapped and warms us.
What you Need for this Preschool Weather Experiment:
Something that changes color based on heat. Try the Small World Toys Magic Gertie Ball
What to do for this Preschool Weather Experiment: 
Play with your product. Stick your Gertie Ball in freezer or outside to get it cold and then let your preschooler lay their warm hands on it. Stick a Biofeedback Bio Square beneath their shirt or tuck the Gertie ball under their shirt to show how their shirt keeps them warm. Hide the biofeedback bio square or Gertie ball beneath a hat and show your preschooler how a hat traps body heat and helps keep them warm. You and your preschooler are only limited by how far your imagination can take you.
