This week’s theme is on HEAVY.
Let’s have something way out of the box this week.
“I’m HEAVY,” said the egg with a sad face.
You all don’t believe I’m HEAVY?
Can’t you see that I’m HEAVY in that glass?
Gosh! I’m so HEAVY that I could barely float in the water.
Don’t worry… a bit of magic in my hand
will make me not so HEAVY
and float in the water… hehe :P
Here is a secret on how the egg can float.
I have stirred two teaspoons of salt into the glass of water.
Adding salt to the water puts more molecules into the water to make it denser.
The more salt you add, the denser the water becomes.
Finally it becomes denser than the egg.
This makes the egg float.

its the same principle as in the dead sea where swimmers will float all the time

Hi Criz...
thanks for dropping by! I just got mine up..hee hee...
this egg, I thot u just switched with an old egg..coz the older the eggs, the more air they have! Didn't think it was salt that did the trick!
Also, GONG XI GONG XI YEA!!!!
I love your story here. Yes, the salt in water. Like the Dead Sea where people just float and no need to swim. :)
I haven't been feeling so great in the last couple days but this really made me smile... what a wonderful post!!!

Very imaginative post for the theme this week! You're always thnking! My hunt is up please come and visit
This is really neat Criz. Educational and funny. What more can you ask. Have a great weekend.
This is great! I used to do this experiment with my grade 4 kiddies when we studied water. Very unique idea for "heavy." :D
You should be a science teacher.
Awesome idea for the theme, and interesting to boot! I will have to try this one...
I'm so glad you told me why. I keep forgetting. You put so much effort into this post: it's paid off, it's just great! You have a great sense of humor.
So cute & fun! hehe...

Great choice for this week’s theme.
That´s a very cute take on heavy, Criz! Thanks for sharing the heavy egg´s secret. My son can´t wait to see eggs floating *g*
Happy Hunting!
Eggstatic photos, great post and great Heavy Photo hunt.
Thanks for visiting my lil ol blog and your kind comments.
That's a very clever take on the theme and informative too. Have a great weekend.
Very clever! I love your post.
You have a wonderful way of demonstrating'Heavy'.
Most entertaining!
That's a great and creative heavy concept. Did you end up making salted eggs then?
Happy CNY to you.
My heavy is published.
I don't know the salt thing, but I know if you put an egg in water and it floats it is fresh and if it sinks it's rotten. Or was it the other way around ??? Don't remember.
BTW Happy New Year to you ! Good start into the Rat year !
Very Fun! I'm going to have to do that experiment with my 9 year old.
that's a great post, how cute does that egg look! :-)
I hope the egg is smiling now that he is not so heavy!
My kids love that experiment.
That is such a fun post! Thank you.
Very imaginative post!! Great!
Happy Weekend.
Very nice heavy - enjoy your weekend.
