Put on your lab coat! It's time for another series of Play School's Science Time! With help from some very clever friends, Leah and Teo create science experiments that are easy to do and fun for the whole family.
Hosts
Leah Vandenberg, Teo GebertWhy do some bubbles pop and not others? Professor Bubbles is an expert in bubbles! Using his special formula, Leah and Professor Bubbles make their own brilliant bubbles to test what makes bubbles pop!
Why do things change shape when we look at them through water? Teo investigates light refraction and experiments with patterns and drawings to see how they change when seen through water!
Can we make chalk from something found around the house or garden? Leah has run out of chalk to finish a game of hopscotch! But don't fret, Leah investigates how to make her own chalk using something commonly found at home.
How does the harmonica make sound? Musician Colin Buchanan demonstrates the amazing instruments he can play and shows Teo how he can create his own harmonica to make music too!
Can we make our own fossils? And fast! Paleontologist Ben shows Leah his collection of fascinating fossils and together make their very own DIY fast fossils with clay and plaster.
How can we make something move through water? With the help of his trusty Experiment Log, Teo investigates and documents what objects he can (and can't!) get to zoom through water!
Why are some foods more sour than others? Leah is tasting different foods, from sweet mangos to sour lemons. Scientist Maddie helps Leah explore why some foods are sour and some aren't...using a surprising ingredient!
How do whales keep warm? Teo and Wildlife Scientist Dr Vanessa create a chilly and buttery experiment to show how whales stay warm in the icy waters of Antarctica!
What can be held up by a magnet? The magnets on Leah's train set can hold multiple carriages without falling. Leah experiments with magnets to see if she can make other objects hover in the air!
Can we fish sustainably? Vince from Deadly Science and Teo explore a First Nations fish trap design, showing how this method has supported communities for thousands of years.
