Description

Come join in the fun of using basic household items like baking soda, vinegar, and dish soap to make amazing chemistry experiments! Each experiment will include materials found right in your home kitchen. Some of these may include: rainbow liquid columns, invisible ink, DIY crystals, slime, Mentos and soda geysers, hot ice, and gummy bear osmosis to name a few. Science is so cool!
