We love carrying out science experiments in this household. When asked if we’d consider building our own bottle rocket as part of the BBC’s Terrific Scientific campaign, we leapt at the chance.
Three, two one, blast off. This is a picture of a home-made rocket captured at the very moment it left its launch pad.
It’s been a few weeks since we’ve carried out one of our child-friendly science experiments, but we’re bouncing back with a good one. In this, the latest of our #HouseofExperiments series, we demonstrate that eggs are stronger than you think.
The kids and I have been busy conducting science experiments again. On this occasion, Helen, Izzy and I carried out the ‘electromagnetic balloon’ experiment. What you do is charge up a balloon with static electricity and then use it like a magnet to change the flow of running water.
My daughters and I have been conducting scientific experiments again. This time Helen, Izzy and I have had great fun making a baking powder and vinegar volcano.
