Starter Science Plastic Funnels

The Starter Science Plastic Funnels set is an ideal resource for hands-on discovery in early science classrooms. Featuring brightly coloured, easy-to-handle funnels, this set invites children to investigate how liquids and powders move and flow. As they experiment with volume, viscosity, and colour mixing, students gain valuable insight into everyday scientific principles.

Each funnel is designed for young learners, and the variety of shapes, sizes, and colours makes the set visually appealing...

Educational Benefits:

• Promotes understanding of flow, volume, and material properties.
• Supports exploration of colour theory and mixing.
• Enhances fine motor coordination and process sequencing.
• Encourages independent discovery and sensory learning.
• Introduces scientific observation through playful experimentation.

Classroom Ideas:

• Create a liquid transfer station using coloured water.
• Compare how different substances (e.g., sand, rice, water) pass through funnels.
• Set up a colour mixing station for creative STEM play.
• Use the stand to explore gravity and flow rate variations.
• Add to sensory bins for structured exploratory play.
