Tea Bag Missile

Tea Bag Missile In this science experiment we will explore the concept of rising heat or thermal currents. We will also learn about the scientific principle of convection. We will use a tea bag and lighter to demonstrate.

Leaky Water Bottle Trick

Leaky Water Bottle Trick In this science experiment we will explore air pressure and gravity using a water bottle and push pin. In the process will do a fun demonstration in which water seems to defy gravity and not leak out through holes we make in a bottle filled with water.

Make A Rocking Seesaw Candle

Make A Rocking Seesaw Candle In this science experiment we will explore Sir Isaac Newton's third law and make a seesawing candle. When we light the candle it will rock back and forth like a child on a
seesaw at the playground.

Balloon CD Hovercraft

Balloon CD Hovercraft In this science experiment we will explore how hovercrafts work and even build our own using a balloon, CD, pop-up lid, and glue. We will learn about friction in the process.
