Kids Science Fair Project

[Impious 1,476]

Wondering if any of you bright young gents have any good suggestions on what to do for my daughter's science fair project. Mind you she's in first grade, so something like (and yes, this was my first thought)

"The Compliance Effects of an Acoustic Suspension Enclosure On An Electrodynamic Transducer" just doesn't seem like it would fly....

So, got any suggestions? Looking for something some-what off the wall and unique, yet something a 7yr old could handle. And frankly, I want to make it interesting enough that even I am intrigued by the results. And it sort of has to follow the scientific method; I.E. the goal is to ask a question, form a hypothesis, create and demonstrate an experiement, come to a conclusion.

Ugh, I used to have a reference book dedicated to junior science fairs with examples of projects, methods, and results.

I think/act like a seven year old, so this shouldn't be too difficult.

Some might be a little too tough, though.

Spanks for some input guys.

I'm going to flip through that all-science-fair webpage and geek out some of their other experiments aswell.
