Lava Lamp

Join Ms Heidi for this groovy experiment.  She will show you how to make a lava lamp with common household items.  You will need: a smooth-sided plastic or glass container, vegetable oil, water, food coloring drops, and Alka Seltzer tablets. We’ve bought plenty of Alka Seltzer tablets, so stop by the library if you need one.

STEAM – Tin Can Telephones

Join Ms. Deb on Facebook for a virtual STEAM activity. Activities are geared toward K-5 learners and require minimal supplies that you’ll likely have right on-hand at home.
