Ocean Commotion

By Brandy Barker on June 12, 2014

This blog was guest written by Cindy Diaz from Stonebridge Academy.

Summer has begun at The Bridge Learning Centers and we are completely engulfed in fun-filled summer camp activities with our “As Seen On T.V.” theme. This year we are so excited about our attempt to break a Guinness World Record with the largest amount of people to pass through a hula hoop. With all of the summer camp excitement, we can easily forget about all the amazing things our classrooms are experiencing each day. This month’s theme is Ocean Commotion and we are diving into many underwater adventures. From our youngest classroom of 6-week-old infants, to our oldest class of 4 year olds, our children are submerging into ocean-related learning activities.

Here at Stonebridge Academy, our K3A, 3-year-old pre-k class, got to experiment with the concept of cause and effect, through an awesome, aquatic science activity. The activity was simple and yummy but it was full of educational value, much like all of our activities here at the Bridge. Our little friends were so excited to make Ocean Pudding. First, each child took turns pouring the powdered pudding mix into a large white bowl. Secondly, they took turns adding the milk a little at a time. After they mixed the mixture together and noted the change from powder into thick liquid, they each got to squeeze one drop of blue food coloring into the bowl. After a few stirs, they observed the Ocean Blue Pudding. Then, the super fun part came, the eating part. Science never tasted so good and I am sure our little friends would all agree.

Science projects, like Ocean Pudding, are so simple to do that you could even try them at home with your child. All you need are few simple ingredients: a pack of instant vanilla pudding, cold milk and blue food coloring. For infants, this experiment might not be ideal. A good alternative for infants might be mixing a little bit of water and sand together for your infants to explore the touch of wet sand. This is also a good way to introduce them to the “beach” before you take your summer vacation this year.  All of us here at the Bridge Learning Centers hope you have a happy, science-filled summer.
