I remember my high school chemistry teacher did a fun science experiment during our finals week, which backed up to Spring Break. She started the class saying that Peeps were indestructible!  I remember thinking to myself, “Is she talking about those yummy marshmallow Easter treats?”, and she was!  We spent that week brainstorming ways we could make those little Peeps dissolve.   It was so fun, and kids got VERY creative.

This wonderful memory prompted me to create my newest product, The Great Peep Experiment!

This 3 day activity is easily adaptable for grades 1st-5th. It walks the students through the Scientific Method in a fun and festive way! It goes over solutions and solvents by having the kids try to to dissolve the beloved marshmallow Peep!

This is a great pre-Easter Science activity that is going to be perfect for next week ESPECIALLY because next week is modified week for conferences AND it is the last week before our Spring Break!  This will keep the kids engaged and curious the entire week!  Grab this here, at my Teachers Pay Teachers Store!
