What a terrific way to explore temperature! Little scientists can use this resource to make their own large thermometer and measure hot and cold liquids. They can then come up with their own experiment ideas or discuss how it might be working. When heat is introduced, molecules move faster and so the colored liquid inside the tube expands and climbs.
