Yes it is! At Home Experiment: What You Will Need: Glass Jar Match or Hairspray Warm water Ice cubes Pour warm tap water into a jar, throw in a match or spray hairspray into the jar. Place the lid upside down on top of the jar and place several ice cubes. Watch your cloud form! The science from PlaydoughtoPlato.com: “In this demonstration you added water vapor to the jar by using warm water. The smoke or hairspray acted as the cloud seed. When you added the ice filled lid on top you cooled the warm air causing it to condense on the surface of the cloud seed particles, forming a cloud!” Check out more on Playdoughtoplato.com Sing a Song of Clouds! CLOUD (BINGO) There is a mist that’s way up high and we call it a CLOUD, C * L * O * U * D (x3) the cloud is in the sky. I adapted this from song from: http://www.preschoolexpress.com
