NEW YORK (1010 WINS) -- Blue Ivy Carter showed off her scientific prowess in a video posted to Instagram by her grandmother, in which the 8-year-old illustrates the benefits of hand-washing amid the current coronavirus pandemic.

"Blue's PSA ... My brilliant granddaughter Blue did this experiment to show how washing your hands fights the virus," Tina Lawson captioned the minute-long video, during which the daughter of Beyonce and Jay-Z uses a bowl of water mixed with pepper to represent the coronavirus. She dips her finger in soap and then touches the water and pepper mix, which causes the pepper to immediattely move away from her fingertip.
