The Fun of Asking Questions and Exploring

Science starts with curiosity!

Have you ever wondered why the sky is blue or what makes things float? Those are the types of questions scientists ask! Every time you ask “Why?” or “How?” you’re starting a little bit of science.

Why curiosity is important

Scientists today were once kids who asked questions just like you. When you explore and ask questions about the world, you’re building the skills to become a scientist! Science is all about trying things out, solving problems, and learning from mistakes.

Every kid can be a scientist

Science isn’t just for a few “smart” kids—it's for everyone! You don’t have to be a genius to be curious and explore the world. You just need to ask questions, experiment, and keep learning.

How to become a future scientist

• Explore the world: Go on nature walks, visit a museum, or just look around your backyard.
• Do experiments: Try simple experiments at home. Like seeing how plants grow or making a homemade volcano.
• Never stop asking questions: There’s no such thing as a “bad” question. Every question helps you learn!
• Look up to scientists: There are scientists from all over the world who look like you, come from different places, and do all sorts of cool things. You can be one of them too!
