5 Dry Ice Halloween Science Experiments
The only experience I have with dry ice is packing a cooler with it. I know it was easy to buy (a local grocery store is always stocked with it), I also know you have to be careful with it but that’s about all I know. These science activities have me ready to jump right in! I’m thinking family dry ice experiment day. Doesn’t that sound fun?
- Tinkerlab has a great simple activity for exploring dry ice with younger kids.
- Steve Spangler has a fantastic Boo Bubbles set that includes everything you need (except the dry ice of course). The set even has step by step instructions that explain the science behind the fun. This is an affiliate link.
- You can use dry ice to explode a balloon or a sandwich bag like Come Together Kids did.
- While doing their Halloween science experiments, Urth Mama used a straw cup to move the dry ice smoke.
- These dry ice tips from Steve Spangler will make me feel much more comfortable with the experimenting.
5 ways to play with Pumpkins
- Our rotting pumpkin experiment is still one of my favorites!
- This pumpkin sensory experience from Learn Play Imagine is incredible. I bet the kids would be entertained for hours.
- Every year since Big M was a baby I have bought little pumpkins, gourds and Indian corn to set up as a playful decoration. I love the way they look and I love way the kids explore them. Using them for play, for art and for pretending. Twodaloo added something to this simple exploration activity. Foil! Awesome!
- Create an optical illusion with this pumpkin/jack o’ lantern trick from KC Edventures.
- I saw this idea last year (a little too late into the season) and I’m thrilled to have found it again (early this time). Coffee Cups and Crayons used uncarved pumpkins in a full on pumpkin investigation. This is one of those activities that could be an all day family event. I think I’ll let the kids help decided what type of investigating we do!
5 Super Sweet Candy Halloween Science Experiments
We have a great candy rule at our house. It works really well, leaves the kids in control and me happy with the amount of sugar they are having. It also leaves us with piles of uneaten candy. I don’t want to throw it away… how about we have a little Halloween candy science fun instead? (Okay some of these involve eating candy… they are still going to have way less then if we gave them all of it.)
- Fantastic Fun and Learning made a really great flavor mixing lab using lollipops. Little M loves mixing and pouring. This would be her favorite for sure.
- We had so much fun Tootsie Roll Pop experiment.
- I love what Mama Smiles has done with her gummy candy experiments.
- Halloween science experiments can be so simple! Lemon Lime Adventures threw together a quick dissolving pumpkin candy experiment that got the kids really excited.
- Coffee Cups and Crayons made dissolving candy even easier by trying to dissolve the M off some M & M candies.
The hard part is going to figuring out which Halloween science experiments to do first!
