Curious morning at MUHK: soil and water experiments

Come and discover at the December Curious Morning how soil and water are connected. Soil absorbs, stores and cleans water and helps it reach the groundwater. The composition and condition of the soil affect how much water it holds and how quickly it moves through it.

At the family morning we explore through play and experiments how water moves in soil, how soil affects water, and why rainwater does not behave the same way in sand, clay and humus-rich soil.

In the second part we get our hands muddy and wet and experiment together in the museum’s teaching classroom. We build our own layered water filter and find out how water moves through soil of different density.

If you are wondering where to go with the children on Sunday morning, come and discover, play and create together as a family at MUHK in Ülenurme, just outside Tartu!
