With Valentine's Day in three days, STEAM Powered Family shares some fun activities centered around heart themes and some of them include how-to videos.  Here are a sample of fun activities that you and your children can  work together on Valentine's day, or any day after:

  1.  Build a functioning heart model - make a model heart using soda bottles and check out how the valves work between the cavities of the heart.
  2.  Build a DIY stethoscope - use the stethoscope to listen to heartbeats of family, friends and pets and check out heartbeats at rest and right after being in motion. Record the different rates.
  3. Build a glow heart circuit – create a glowing heart circuit that lights up like an LED.  Use glow in the dark pink or red glue to add the valentine touch.

Enjoy your heart themed projects and imbue your kids with a love for science on Valentine's Day and every day of the year.
