saline = bouyancy







Apologies for the blurry pics. So this is still part of UN day (although I'm not quite sure of the connection). In the classrooms, the kids had little demonstrations for the parents. This one involved putting an egg in a cup of water to prove it sinks. Then the kids add progressively more salt until the egg floats. This takes a lot longer than I had anticipated but is strangely impressive when it actually works (I had my doubts).
