Cut the tip (neck) of the balloon off. Boo Bubbles - Dry Ice Science at Steve Spangler Science. Use a utility blade (like a box cutter) to carefully cut the top off of the two liter bottle.
Make sure the the hole in the top of the two liter bottle is not larger than the funnel you'll be using. Attach a length of rubber tubing to the narrow end of the funnel by squeezing the funnel into the tubing. Use the utility blade to cut a hole in the bottom of a small plastic portion cup just large enough to fit the rubber tubing. Slide the end of the rubber tubing (not attached to the funnel) into the hole in the portion cup.
Mix up a batch of your favorite bubble solution in a cup that is large enough to fit your portion cup. Touchable Boo Bubbles! Purchase a pair of Bubble Gloves (100% cotton gloves also work well).

When I was in Kindergarten, I remember our Halloween party so clearly.
One of the room moms brought apple juice and dry ice for a witch’s brew and it has stayed with me to this day (I say that like I’m not 30…and if you think 30 is old, then I am sad and hope no one calls you old when you’re 30. Or maybe I do…) Even though it was just apple juice and a black plastic cauldron, we were all blown away. Fast forward 17 years to my senior year of college when I was doing a presentation on Frankenstein and I brought the same magic potion to a room full of college kids.
And they had the exact same reaction as we did when we were in Kindergarten. After that, it kind of became my “thing”; I am voluntold every year that I will be bringing the drink to the classroom Halloween parties and that it will be Witch’s Brew and that everyone is very excited. This year, I decided the witch’s brew is fun and cute, but we should up the ante. Science Experiments. Halloween fun: magical monster slime.
There are a variety of recipes floating around Pinterest for Slime or Gak.
My boys loved the stuff when they were younger. They probably still would. :) There's one special ingredient that the recipe we used forgot to add, which makes the slime "magical. " That's according to these three little monsters. Ella and Kate wanted a play date this week. They both love to do crafts, so they dressed paper dolls with real fabric and made magical monster slime. Ingredients: 1 teaspoon Borax powder 1 1/2 c. water, divided 4 oz.
Fill a small bowl (or measuring cup it you have two) with 1 cup of water and add 1 teaspoon of Borax powder. Pour glue into a medium mixing bowl and add 1/2 cup of water. Spend five minutes arguing about what color the slime should be. Once it's decided, add about four drops of food coloring to the glue mixture. Stir it up a bit and add a bunch of glitter. Now add the Borax mixture to the glue mixture and watch it begin to solidify--cool! Dancing Oobleck. My kids love trying new Science Experiments, and play recipes.
Today we decided to combine the 2 and try to make our Oobleck dance using sound waves. If you have never made it before, Oobleck is a mixture of cornstarch and water. When played with fast it acts like a solid…when allowed to relax it acts like a liquid. This post contains affiliate links for your convenience. When we saw a few youtube videos that involved Dancing Oobleck, we decided we needed to take our gooey play to the next level. Dancing Oobleck Recipe You will need to make your Oobleck thicker than usual.
Easy Science Experiments for Kids. Water into Wine Demonstration. This popular chemistry demonstration is often called turning water into wine or water into blood.
It's really a simple example of a pH indicator. Phenolphthalein is added to water, which is then poured into a second glass containing a base. If the pH of the resulting solution is right, you can make the water turn from clear to red to clear again, as long as you like.
