Peeps Science Experiment

Through this workshop, children learned the process of fermentation. In the workshop, students placed marshmallows into bottles and added yeast to them. Balloons were attached to the opening of the bottles, and measurements of how much the balloons inflates will be taken.

Toy Cars Lab

Newton's 2nd Law of Motion can be seen in different parts of peoples' everyday lives. In this workshop, children constructed toy cars and tested them on ramps of different altitudes. Through doing this, Newton's 2nd Law of Motion can be explained and understood.

August 19th, 2024 & May 7th, 2025

Slime

This activity mainly focused on non-Newtonian fluids and the job they have in science. We explained the reasoning behind why is doesn't follow Newton's law of viscosity through basic terms that attendees can understand. Through the interactive making of slime, students were able to better understand this concept.

Windmill Designing

In this workshop, children created miniature windmills. Innovation and trial-and-error were exemplified by attempting to make the most efficient windmill blades. Students were able to see the technological perspective of science, which allows our society to advance. They were supplied paper, scissors, and markers to make their own personalized windmill and blades.

Elephant Toothpaste

Children learned how to create elephant toothpaste to explore the reaction between sodium iodide and hydrogen peroxide. Students were in a controlled environment and learn about this interesting chemical reaction that demonstration of a catalyzed chemical reaction.

Lava Lamps

In this workshop, we focused on the science behind lava lamps. This experiment taught students about the differences in density and how it plays a role, not only in this cool setting, but also in the world all around us. By simply adding an Alka Seltzer tablet, the oil added came to life for an educational yet engaging lesson.

M&M Experiment

The M&M experiment was an interesting way to model the diffusion of molecules, and how the sugary and colorful coating of the candy attractes to water molecules. Students were provided with colorful M&M's, water, and plates the experiment come to life.

February 18th & March 23rd, 2025

Earthquake Shake

Earthquakes are a devastating natural disaster that many people and places have to painfully endure. In this workshop, kids learned about how Earth's constant changes can lead to immediate changes that we can see and feel, such as earthquakes. They were be able to create a model on how such earthquakes can effect even the strongest buildings and cities and how fundamental it is to have a strong foundation.

Lungs Model

Every moment, every second, we breath. It's an simply an absolute necessity to living! But how? In this workshop, we led the construction of a model that demonstrated almost exactly how our bodies can take in oxygen from the air around us. This understanding exposed students to one of the many astounding functions our bodies have and perform on a day-to-day basis.

Snow Fluff

In this experiment, participants were able to create snow- in April! They used cornstarch, shaving cream, and other materials to form a playdough like substance that had a texture similar to that of real snow. Through the workshop, they were educated on the science of surface tension and mixtures, an important concept that affects everyone's lives today.

May 31st

Catapult Challenge

Students will build their very own catapult out of everyday items like popsicle sticks, rubber bands, and spoons. Through innovation and creativity, their goal is to be able to create a catapult that can fling a ball the furthest across the room.
