Mouse in the House

Take a look at several experiments that include creating electricity by making a lemon battery to turn on a digital clock, surface tension of liquids by making "rainbow milk," chemical reaction with household chemicals to produce a "fizzing volcano", the density of fluids by producing a simple lava lamp, density by building a treasure diver using a tomato sauce packet.

Come investigate the surface tension reducing properties of soap by making a match stick boat, principles of a steam engine and build a simple egg steam boat, different densities of liquids, plastic by making "green monster slime", homemade invisible ink also known as "magic ink". We explore the pressure that can be caused by carbon dioxide by creating a "soda fountain".

This experiment looks at the center of gravity of objects by balancing nails. The effect of carbon dioxide on density is explored by making raisins "dance." With our homemade musical straws we look at sound vibrations and frequency to produce music. We explore water vapor and water molecules through the formation of a cloud in a bottle.

Explore the impact of carbon dioxide and oxygen interaction, spin a bucket of water round and round and learn about Inertia, see the effects between high and low air pressure! We will see an egg being "magically sucked" into a bottle and explore surface tension through the interaction of water vapor and carbon dioxide. We explore buoyancy by make an egg float like a boat!
