Phases of Water
There are three different types of stages water can be in called phases. Water can be a liquid, a solid, or a gas.
Liquid
Liquid water likes to flow freely! Liquid water can be warm or cold
Solid
Solid water is what we call ice! Ice is very cold...brrrr!
Gas
Gas water is called steam. Steam is hot, hot, hot!
How does water work? Let's sing the water cycle song!

Where can we find water?
Mountains
Water likes to be way up high and flow down from mountain tops
Clouds
Water likes to hang out in the clouds in the gas form! When clouds get tired of holding up water they let it fall down to the ground called precipitation
Puddles
Just like you, water loves to be splashing in puddles on the ground!
Does it sink or float?
Let's find out what sinks and floats in water!
Feathers
Light objects like feathers don't like to get wet so they float on top of the water!
Coins
Heavy objects like coins are way to heavy for water to hold up so they sink to the bottom!
