Identify the Smell
Subject: Science
(This idea was contributed by Laura)
Age Range: 5 to 11

This activity can be used for introducing the sense of smell.

Fill several plastic cups with strong smells, and then send the children around the room and ask them to identify the smell, only by using their sense of smell.

Cover the tops of the cups so they can't see what's inside.
