Demonstrations

•  PH "Potions" Experiment - Our "potions" activity teaches about the PH scale and demonstrates different PH levels with a "magical" color changing "potion."

•  Use household ingredients to visually see different PH levels and learn about the difference between an acid and a base.  

•  Learn about chemical reactions by mixing different substances together to create a foaming reaction. 

​

​

• Elephant toothpaste  

• Combine hydrogen peroxide, yeast, and soap to create a chemical reaction that produces a large foamy mess that looks like toothpaste.   

• Learn about yeast, oxygen, and chemistry! Children can play with the toothpaste afterwards as a sensory activity.  

​

 

​

• Slime Lab – Everyone makes their own personalized putty, which can be taken home.

  • Learn about States of matter and what makes polymers so special (and fun!).

  • Notes: Food dye is used. Plan clothing choices appropriately.​

​

​​

• Dry Ice Bubbles– We harness the special properties of dry ice to learn about gas formation!

• Learn about Gas and pressure and the phases of matter.

• Notes: Dry ice is perfectly safe when used in a controlled environment.  Participants may opt to wear safety goggles and protective gloves, which can be provided. Some versions of this activity can also get noisy, so prepare accordingly!

​

​

• 3-2-1 POP - This activity is a simple but exciting demonstration of Newton's Laws of Motion.

• Students construct a rocket powered by the pressure generated from an effervescent antacid tablet reacting with water.       

• Caution! Loud Noises

• The lesson plan we use is from NASA STEM Engagement
