*Safety Check-In: The activities in this curriculum are intended for family-style use under direct adult supervision. Because every family’s home environment and children are unique, please use your best judgment to ensure a safe experience. Always verify materials—such as plants, food items, or chemicals—for safety and allergies before use, and keep heat sources, tools, and small parts under close adult watch. You know your children best; please adapt these activities as needed to ensure they are age-appropriate and safe for your specific family.

Create a hoverboard using an old cd, a bottle top, and a balloon. Hot glue a closable bottle top to a cd. Close the cap and fill the balloon. Attach the balloon to the top of the cap and open the cap. The air will create pressure directing downward and the CD will float. Discuss the lack of friction the cd has on the table.
