Celebrate Earth Science Week by creating your very own cloud in this demonstration! We love learning more about the earth and how it works, and earth science helps us do just that. Observe what happens as condensation forms and collects on smoke particles from an extinguished match. Make sure you have adult supervision when completing this experiment.

The results may surprise you!
