Which one creates the best charge and attracts the most pepper?<\/p>\n<p>See what else your charged balloon can attract. Do other spices work too?<\/p>\n<div class=\"info-box\">\n<h3 class=\"fun-fact\">Fun Science Fact<\/h3>\n<p>Firstly, a little background. Things are made of atoms, and inside atoms are protons (which are positively charged), electrons (which are negatively charged) and neutrons. Sometimes atoms can &#8216;lose&#8217; or &#8216;gain&#8217; an electron, resulting in a positive or negative charge. Things that have an opposite charge (ie are comparatively more positive or more negative than each other) will attract.<\/p>\n<p>When a balloon rubs against hair, some of the electrons from the hair &#8216;jump&#8217; onto the balloon. This makes the balloon more negatively charged (because of the &#8216;gained&#8217; extra electrons) than the neutral pepper. When you then bring the balloon and pepper into close proximity with each other, the pepper becomes attracted to the balloon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4670\" src=\"https:\/\/gosciencekids.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Fun-static-electricity-science-for-toddlers-help-Daddy-Balloon-grow-a-beard-1.jpg\" alt=\"Fun static electricity science for toddlers - help Daddy Balloon grow a beard\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gosciencekids.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Fun-static-electricity-science-for-toddlers-help-Daddy-Balloon-grow-a-beard-1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gosciencekids.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Fun-static-electricity-science-for-toddlers-help-Daddy-Balloon-grow-a-beard-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/gosciencekids.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Fun-static-electricity-science-for-toddlers-help-Daddy-Balloon-grow-a-beard-1-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/gosciencekids.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/Fun-static-electricity-science-for-toddlers-help-Daddy-Balloon-grow-a-beard-1-250x375.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"info-box\">\n<h3 class=\"warning\">Please note&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>This is generally a fun and safe activity for young kids. They can taste the pepper if they like &#8211; watch for their reaction!
