@whatamomcreates: SCIENCE For Little Hands 🍁 Ep. 6 – Pinecone Magic! What we used: – A pinecone – A bowl of water – Patience 😄 What we did: We placed a dry pinecone in a bowl of water for 5 minutes. Took the pinecone out of the water and watched what happened. Within 30 minutes, it slowly started to close up again! 🌧️🌰 Why? When pinecones get wet, they close to protect their seeds. As they dry, they open up again to spread them. It’s nature’s way of saying: “Not the time, little seeds!” 😉 Perfect for fall, super simple, and full of wonder. 🍂✨ #scienceexperiments #scienceforkids #stemforkids #earlylearning #fallactivitiesforkids
