Use what you have.

I legitimately grabbed a random bin of LEGOs and we did with what we had.

This represents the land.

3d water cycle

Meaning trees, plants, etc.

We added was water.

This represents any body of water like lakes, ocean, pond, etc.

A lot of the Earth’s water does not take part in the water cycle very often. Much of it is stored. The Earth stores water in a number of places. The ocean is the largest storage of water. Around 96% of the Earth’s water is stored in the ocean. We can’t drink the salty ocean water, so fortunately for us, freshwater is also stored in lakes, glaciers, snow caps, rivers, and below the ground in groundwater storage.

Step 1 Evaporation

The first step of the water cycle isevaporation.

The water vapour or steam leaves the river, lake or ocean and goes into the air.

As the air gets cold and changes back into a liquid it forms clouds.
