12 fun experiments that look like magic to spark your kids’ imaginations

As simple as they may seem to an adult, games and new discoveries have a much more important role than we imagine for children. This is because it is through playful activities that they awaken their creative sense and imagination, in addition to becoming much more curious about the world we live in.

With these stimuli, children’s development happens in a much healthier way, with many benefits for their growth. The best thing is that children can learn a lot with fun and easy experiments to do at home, always supported by an adult.

With that in mind, the awesome.club separated some experiments for you to do with the little ones at home and still have a lot of fun. Ready? Choose the most interesting for you and get to work!
