Last week’s special young learner activity was such a hit, we’re bringing Mr. Kengo back for another LSC Junior live stream activity!

Join us Monday, April 27 at 11:30 AM EDT on Liberty Science Center’s Facebook page for Flower Power, a chromatography experiment!

As we turn to the spring season, flowers are beginning to bloom again. But how do they get the water they need to grow? In this program, we’ll explore how plants use specialized parts to take in and spread water all throughout its body.

Follow along with Mr. Kengo as we make a flower model to observe how water is able to travel through a flower to help it grow. Friends and families participating from home will need 4 or 5 coffee filters (but you can substitute paper towels or newspaper), a pair of scissors, some markers, a cup, and water.

We would like to give a special thank you to the members and supporters who continue to make this science learning possible through their support of the LSC Sustainability Fund! https://lsc.org/support-us/lsc-sustainability-fund
