We enjoyed all the visitors to our booth Thursday evening.  Among the science treats we handed out, the most popular were the Ghost Eggs, Glow Worms and Vampire Slime.  All three are examples of polymers.  Polymers include anything plastic or rubber as well as several things found in nature.  DNA and proteins are polymers!
The next question asked was "Where did you get this?"  We ordered from SteveSpangler.com

OMSH Cave

I am so excited about our cave in the Origins Gallery. I took a friend, her daughter and son through on a sneak preview. They were each amazed they were not in a real cave. I loved hearing their exclamations of delight and cannot wait to share with the public. We are running behind schedule but plan to have a special teacher event when it is ready.

Creating a Precipitate Lab

A precipitate is the resulting solid of a chemical reaction producing the carbonate which forms the building blocks of many cave formations. This lab is a great connection for Physical and Earth Science.
