A few years ago, one of my kiddo’s classmates returned to school after battling cancer. As this classmate returned, the staff and kids did their best to keep things clean and germ-free. The concept of germs got them thinking about how they’re spread and how they can make people sick. It was the further discussion that ultimately morphed these questions into an experiment and a cool science fair project! Below, we’ll run through how our kids tried to find the germiest place in school. Feel free to use this guide if you’re curious or looking for an idea for your own science fair project… let’s science!
