Now, this experiment was easy and cost us nothing because we already had the popsicles. :) LOVE this part.
First, we made a few predictions. Our oldest, Sici, predicted the darker popsicle would melt first because she read it in a book. Our middle daughter, Amelia, went with the lighter color popsicle. And of course the spitting image of our oldest , Bridgette, chose the darker one as well. I tell you, those two are like two peas in a pod. We also discussed the conditions and where we would put the popsicles. We went with HOT and we put them on the driveway, in the sun. Then, we played and worked a little, occasionally checking on them.
The outcome... the darker popsicle melted just a pinch faster than the lighter popsicle. The best part of this experiment is that we were able to refreeze the popsicles and enjoy them later in the day! :)
Have you done any experiments this summer? Let us know about them!
