Kitchen Science

Using basic household ingredients we’ll do experiments, learn some basics about physics and chemistry and have a blast (sometimes literally!).

The entire playlist is available here. For printable instructions see the Supporting Documents at the bottom of this page.

Make unspillable water (and no, we're not talking about ice).
You just need a clear bowl or plastic tub, water, random stuff from around your house, and an orange (or clementine) to play around with density.
Painting with milk - it's a thing!
Inflate a balloon using chemistry.
Make and sink a boat! All you need is some aluminum foil, water, a sink or bowl, and pennies to try out your engineering skills.
Make pepper dance! Use pepper, water, dish soap, and a paperclip to demonstrate hydrophobia and surface tension.
Action at a distance? Try performing static magic and decide for yourself.
Make walking water.
Make... a baggie? How about an exploding one?
Make a magic penny disappear - with science!
Go retro! Make your own lava lamp.
For goodness' sakes, it's bubble snakes!
More extremely localized weather phenomena in jars - this time tornados.
Never mind the moonbeams - carry rainbows home in a jar.
Make a glitter volcano!
