Floating an egg in water
We had two containers filled with tap water. We added salt to one container and found that our egg floated in the salty water but not in the plain water. The children had to think and share amongst themselves as to why this happened. We decided that adding salt changed the water and made it 'heavy' and the egg was light enough to float in it.
