The Sticky Balloon Trick! Physics for Kids

The video demonstrates a balloon sticking to a wall using static electricity, explaining that it's not magic but science. It introduces the concept of opposites, positive and negative, and how they attract each other, similar to magnets. The video further explains that everything is made of tiny particles, some positive and some negative, and how rubbing a balloon on a shirt transfers negative particles to the balloon, creating static electricity. This causes the balloon to stick to the wall due to the attraction between the negative particles on the balloon and the positive particles on the wall. The video concludes with examples of static electricity in everyday life.
