Show them an empty soda bottle and ask them what is inside chances are they will say nothing.
Now put a balloon over the top.
Set 2 liter bottle in boiling water and watch the balloon inflate.

If it were empty how could it inflate?
Air is real we just cant see it!
Now heat it on the stove until hot.
Meanwhile get ready a large bowl of ice water.
Now using tongs quickly put thehotcan in thevery coldwater.
Air pressure experiments with water
Pick two children to compete in thisscience project.
They should both have a glass containing a beverage.
Put a straw in each glass, but one of the straws should have holes in them.
Have the children compete to see who can drink the liquid the quickest.
Plus dont miss these book to help explain air pressure to kids.
Youve GOT to try some of theseoutrageously funscience experiments for kids!
