Link to history/The Ancient Egyptians.
Investigate the mummification process and consolidate understanding of mummification.
Children get to mummify their own apples, making predictions, comparing the experiment to what the Ancient Egyptians did and evaluating the experiment at a later date. (Can leave the apples as long as you like - we left them for 10 days!)
Children love completing this experiment and are engaged the entire time!
Materials needed:
Small apples, antibacterial hand gel, table salt, bicarbonate of soda, plastic cups, paper towels, vegetable peeler, labels.
