Can You Separate Sand and Salt? momstown KW Can!

Guess what we did at Little Scientists this month?
 
We separated sand mixed with salt.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here's how:

  • Mix sand and salt together


 
  • Stir the mixture into water
  • filter the water through a coffee filter
What you have left with is salty water and sand in the filter
 
Now, to get the salt back, boil the filtered water until nothing but salt remains!
 
Pretty cool huh?
 
Don't forget, our momstown Movers program isn't all work... there is always social time for moms and playtime for kids too!



 Join us next week for a special Junior Chef sponsored by Et Tu!
