The video tutorial introduces the season of spring and its weather, focusing on why it rains. The teacher sets up a science experiment using shaving cream, water, and food coloring to simulate cloud formation and rain. The concept of evaporation is explained, highlighting how the sun helps water evaporate into the sky, forming clouds. As the experiment progresses, viewers observe how clouds become heavy with water and eventually release rain. The tutorial concludes with a recap of the experiment and encourages students to share their new knowledge about rain with others.
