There are a lot of great kids science projects for any age. Physical science is a good category for kids to experiment with because they can do this with their family or friends at school.

A good science experiment for kids is to see if they can determine the gender of a person simply looking at their feet. To do this, you can take pictures of all the kid’s feet and put them on a poster and see if the kids can guess if each foot belongs to a girl or a boy in the class. Another option would be to have the kids cut pictures of people’s feet out of magazines and mark on the back if it is a man’s foot or a woman’s foot. Then, have the other students try to guess if it’s a man or woman’s foot.

Other fun kids science projects can be to to see if water always drains in the same direction. They can do this by checking a few places around the school, such as a toilet, a sink and perhaps a floor drain, if available.

Have them flush the toilet and make note of which way the water drains, then plug a sink, fill it with water and take the plug out. Make note of which way the water drains, then doing the same with a floor drain, dump a small bucket of water over the drain and see which way it drains. Did all the water drain in the same direction?
