PDF Make a Water
Make a Water Cycle Wristband
from Celebrating Chemistry
Chemists Celebrate Earth Day
All of the water on Earth is part of a never-ending cycle called the water cycle. Water evaporates (becomes gas) from the surface of the Earth, condenses in the atmosphere as clouds, falls to Earth as precipitation and then evaporates again, starting the whole process over.
Be sure to read SAFETY and follow the
Safety Tips on the last page of this activity.
