I Face the Wind

A curious kid heads outside to explore wind firsthand — feeling it push and pull, chasing hats, and figuring out why something you can't see is so easy to feel.

For the kid who asks a hundred questions about how the world works, this turns one of them into an outdoor experiment.

• Big idea: Science starts with noticing — the world gets more interesting once you stop and ask why.
• Vibes: Curious, hands-on, breezy and playful.

• love asking how and why questions
• enjoy hands-on outdoor activities
• are working on early science thinking
• like to test things out for themselves

• Science thinking: Why do you think we can feel the wind but not see it?
• Real-life connection: Can you remember a time the wind pushed you or blew your hat off?
• Hands-on exploration: What happens if we take a balloon outside on a windy day?
• Imagination: If you could see the wind, what color or shape do you think it would be?
• Observation: What clues around us — like leaves or flags — show that the wind is blowing?
