Shoebox Balance Scale

The children have worked with actual balancing scales before, but this is a fun hand - on activity to have them create their own.

Materials:A cylindrical object of some sort (a canned vegetable)A long, flat object (a shoebox lid)Play-doh

Place a blob of play-doh on the table and place the can into it, to prevent the can from rolling. The can needs to be as straight as possible, so be careful to push the can down into the play-doh evenly.Next, balance the lid on top of the can. Do not use play-doh to stick the lid on the can. Just balance it. It takes practice. Let your child practice balancing the lid with nothing in it until he/she gets the hang of it. The child will learn that the lid has to be centered on the can for it to work. Then, allow your child to start placing small objects on each side of the "balance." For example beads, bottle caps, coins, cubes, small toy animals, and crayons etc. Do not tell them how to do it--Allow the child to figure it out on his/her own! If one side falls down, the child must figure out that something needs to be added to the other side. If that side then falls down, take that object out and try something lighter. It's all about trial and error. They are problem-solving! Have child record the results on a paper, date and put in folder. Take pictures of your child engaged with activity and email to me.
