Why Kids Love Unicorn Experiments

Today, science experiments for kids are more important than ever. Science and technology are huge parts of our world today, and the future will be even more science and tech-focused.

Kids who aren’t immersed in the world of science and STEM exploration from a young age will be left behind their peers, and may struggle to find work in the fast-changing landscape of future careers.

Science experiments are usually basic, but they can help spark a love of science and discovery in a child that will follow them throughout their life. The simple science experiment that a child does today may spark their desire to discover something that will change the world in the future.

Every day, young children are using science experiments to solve real-world problems in medicine and technology that have never been uncovered before. And all these scientific discoveries start with a firm foundation in science and STEM.

Nothing is more fun than unicorn science experiments! These unicorn science activities and unicorn STEM activities are the perfect way to learn with magical unicorns while learning all about real life science at the same time. You won't believe how much science you can teach using unicorns! Perfect for STEM centers! #scienceexperiments #science #stemed #unicorn

How a Unicorn Science Experiment Can Benefit Kids

Unicorns are fun. Both girls and boys alike love the horned horses. When your kids have such a passion for something, why not use it to fuel learning in other areas?

Unicorns are bright, happy, and fun. With unicorn science experiments and unicorn STEM activities, you can use these magical creatures to fuel real-life learning and teach fun concepts like the scientific method, chemistry, coding, circuits, variables, density, and much more.

You may be surprised at just how many science experiments you can do using unicorns!

How to Set Up Unicorn Science Fair Projects

Every science experiment contains four elements. If you turn any of these unicorn science experiments into science fair projects, you’ll need to include:

A Question

Kids should start every science experiment with a question, even if that question is just “what will happen?”

A Hypothesis

Before doing any experiment, children should record what they believe will happen.

An Experiment

This is where the fun part comes into play. Test the hypothesis to determine if it answers the question fully.

A Recording and Analysis

As the test is completed, record what happened and analyze why.

A Re-test

Try different variables and try a new test to see if the original answer is confirmed or disproved.
