Turn the ordinary into something
mysterious!
Everyday things take on a new
look when you look at them close-up.
All you need is a magnifying
glass and any object.
> Find some items or food and let the children explore how they look.
> Have them look again through a magnifying glass
> Ask them to describe what they see both times.
> Do they see things they couldn’t see before?
Extend the activity:
Take a picture of something magnified
and normal and see if the children can guess what the magnified image is.
