Understanding pH Workshop
Only a few left!
In this family friendly lab we are working to understand pH. Acids and Alkali materials, the pH scale and their applications are somewhat abstract and we find they are often misunderstood by both students and parents. Many families teach on pH as a science foundation, but have a limited understanding of the implications and applications in life. We will go beyond baking soda vinegar volcanoes, WAY beyond!
This is one of our educational Glen's GizmosFamily Adventures.
Please adjust the number of family members to include anyone 2 years and up (counting adults/parents) to the correct number, then set the quantity at 1 for one family.
Battery Cells Workshop
Only a few left!
In this family friendly lab we are building and testing wet and dry cell batteries. It will help if you have a solid understanding of pH before taking this lab though it isn't required. Together we will tackle questions including: How were batteries invented? What is inside a battery? Where does the power come from? How on earth does a potato produce electricity? What is electricity? Why is a 9 Volt so powerful when it is smaller than a 1.5 Volt D cell?
