Mad Science Experiments

Interested in making some "messy magic" with your student or child?

​
Check out some of the activities we've done in our "Mad Science" club this spring!
OOBLEK/SLIME MAKING: A classic that never gets old! We use 3 parts water to 1 part borax. Click here for a template you can use to help your child or student through this gooey process. (TEACHER'S TIP: Ooblek is especially fun to make if you pretend it's secretly snot!) 

SPIN ART: We have featured this activity on our blog before, but the kids love it so much, we're featuring it again! Click here for a template to use with your child. Before beginning, brainstorm the materials you will need. (TEACHER'S TIP: We use watered-down tempera paint in squirt bottles to make fun tie-dye like designs, without using so much paint! We also have found that card-stock paper works best, and that cut spirals form different designs than those left uncut.) 

MARBLED MILK: This activity is quick, fun, and a great way to mix science with art. (TEACHER'S TIP: Watercolor paper works best for this experiment!)
