Do you know what a leak is? Water dripping out of a faucet can be a leak. Sometimes water leaks where we cannot see it. That wastes water! In this experiment, you will try to find a leak around your house. Fixing a leak can save a lot of water!

Begin the activity:

1. Walk around your house and listen for a "drip, drip, drip" sound. If you hear a drip, head to the faucet and turn it off.

2. Head to the bathroom. If you hear the toilet running for a long time after it has been flushed, it may be leaking.

Making Discoveries:
