Here's a super simple way to teach kids how thunderstorms form along a cold front!

Supplies needed to create your own thunderstorm science experiment:
Clear Rectangular Container
Room Temperature Water
Ice Cube Tray
Red and Blue Food Coloring

This weather science experiment is such a fun way to visualize what actually happens when a cold front pushes warm air out ahead of it and up into the sky to form thunderstorms!

The science behind how thunderstorms form:

This thunderstorm science experiment is a great simulation of how cold fronts and thunderstorms work in the wonderful world of weather!

The blue water represents the cold and dense air behind a cold front that forces the warmer, less dense air ahead of the cold front to rise.

As warm, moist air rises into the sky along a cold front, it cools and condenses into clouds and can eventually grow into thunderstorms!
