World’s Coolest Rain Gauge

Thanks to a generous donation from creator Moira Clune, Swap has another exciting item in our rain garden! This isn’t just any old rain gauge- it’s the World’s Coolest Floating Rain Gauge! Measuring how much water our rain garden gets naturally will help us ensure the young plants are getting enough to drink while they establish their roots- and it’s so neat to study weather and physical science in a visual, interactive way! About the World’s Coolest Rain Gauge: “Based on the Archimedean principle of water displacement, the measurement tube rises from the outer collection flute to show water accumulation. It’s practical, fun…and very cool!” Read more at https://worldscoolestraingauge.com/ Learn about how the science works here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bf41VTxcLkI , or stop by Swap to try it out and learn through hands-on experience!
