Gravity for Kids
Do they fall together?
You need: 1 sheet of paper, 1 book
How it works
- Drop the sheet and the book at the same time. Which lands first?
- Crumple the sheet into a ball and try again.
- Lay the sheet flat on top of the book and drop both.
Why? Air slows the flat sheet. Without air, both would fall at the same speed.
⚠ Don’t drop things from high up. Stay at child height.
