Our Make-and-Take Fun Station Topics
Slime
Children will learn the basics of polymer construction and molecular bonding while making their own ooey, gooey Mad Science Slime to take home. Watch as your children concoct a mixture that will transform from a runny liquid to slippery slime before their very eyes.
Cotton Candy
While making cotton candy for each child, our Mad Scientist will demonstrate how even a sweet treat is created by science. Children will hear how a chemical reaction has turned raw sugar into their delicious cotton candy.
Superballs
Toys are science too! Children will explore the science of motion and hear how some of their favourite toys work. At this booth each child will make their very own bouncy ball to bring home with them!
Mad Science Putty
Watch as your little scientists create a chemical reaction by mixing three liquid ingredients and finishing with stretchy Mad Science Putty to take home. Children will leave the booth with their Putty and having learned the basics of polymers and molecular bonding.
UV or Not UV
Although children are often aware of the dangers of UV light, they may not know how little UV light can cause skin damage. After making their own UV detector key chain at this booth, they will know when they must protect their skin.
Feel the Pressure
Children will feel the pressure as they mash marshmallows, rescue a diver, and participate in our pressure mat challenge. Our crazy Mad Scientist will demonstrate Bernoulli’s principle and children will experience it first hand as they make their own Mist Maker to take home.
Dry Ice
Wow your children with the wonders of Dry Ice. Children will explore the three states of matter and learn about the exciting change known as sublimation. Our Mad Scientists will concoct bubbling potions, colour changing mixtures, and grandiose fog effects with Dry Ice. Each participant will make ‘ Mad Science snow’ to bring home with them.
