Hello friends of @steemiteducation, the education of our children is fundamental for us as parents and that is why we always have to look for the best teaching tools that help us transmit knowledge in a practical and fun way. The experiments at home are a very valuable tool that we have to take advantage of, they offer us infinite possibilities that we must use to teach.Today we will continue studying what is the Center of Gravity, the Experiment of today is very simple but in the same way it will not stop surprising you, we will use elements that you can get at home and you will be able to appreciate what the Center of Gravity represents and means.
But before starting the fun it is important that we know or remember a basic concept.
What is the Center of Gravity?
The center of gravity is the point where all the gravitational forces that are exerted on a body are found. It is the place where the sagittal, frontal and horizontal planes meet.
Materials:
Procedures:
- Place the two forks intertwined and then intertwine the wooden stick at one end.
- If we hold the wooden stick, the forks will remain in balance.
- We can also place our toothpick with the forks on any other stable surface and you will be surprised that without having to hold it the forks alone with the toothpick keep their balance.

What is happening?
The center of mass of the set is below its point of support, thus maintaining the stable balance of the two forks and the wooden stick.
Children love to do experiments. With them, while they have fun, they learn and ask questions about the world around them. Among its many benefits, scientific exploration, feeding, the child's natural curiosity, encouragement, stimulation, reasoning and logic, improving the ability to solve problems, improving self-esteem and preparing for understanding , understanding, understanding. Future It is not necessary to enjoy science to have a laboratory, be surprised by the amount of experiments that can be done with some materials made at home. So there's nothing else, get in touch with work and have fun with your children or students. I hope this article has been of interest and help, and I hope in my next post.
