While looking for more great science experiments for kids and ran across this site called Science Made Simple. They go into some detail on how electricity works, which I found useful for me and the kids, and helped me understand the projects better. I got this from the site: "Everything around us is made of atoms. Scientists so far have found only 115 different kinds of atoms. Everything you see is made of different combinations of these atoms."
One of the experiments is Swinging Cereal. You need a clean comb, Cheerios, and your kid's hair or some wool. You comb your kid's hair (the comb should be cleaned to remove any oils first) or rub it against some wool, then touch it to the Cheerio until it moves away from the comb.
