What happens to a banana overnight if we cover it with milk, water, or paint? Perry Head Start scientists made predictions, set up three cups, labeled them, and checked back the next day to compare color, texture, and smell. We talked about fair tests (same-size banana pieces, same time) and used words like fresh, mushy, brown, coated, and smelly to share results. Science = questions + careful looking!
