Science Bytes #3: WATER ON A PENNY
Science Bytes are simple science projects and demonstrations that can be done at home. In this episode, Miss Nicole of Bloomfield Public Library demonstrates surface tension and cohesion with “water on a penny.” More information about the science in this demonstration can be found on Steve Spangler’s site at https://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/penny-drops/ Read more >
Science Bytes #2: THE BERNOULLI PRINCIPLE & WINDBAGS
Miss Nicole presents SCIENCE BYTES – brief videos sharing simple science projects and experiments that can be done at home. This video is about the Bernoulli Principle using a windbag demonstration. For more details about the nitty-gritty science, please visit Steve Spangler’s science blog: https://www.stevespanglerscience.com/lab/experiments/bernoullis-windbags/ Read more >
Science Bytes #1: MAGIC MILK
Miss Nicole presents SCIENCE BYTES – brief videos sharing simple science experiments and projects that can be done in the home.

Program 32: Animation
The goal of this SEC program was to walk our scientists through the history of animation, to showcase a variety of models of optical illusion toys/devices in a touch & learn lab, and to create some animation magic of our own! Read more >
Program 31: Angry Bird Catapults
With the release of the new Angry Birds movie this summer, I thought it would be a fine time for our scientists to revisit a classic program: catapults. Read more >
Program 30: Galaxy Slime
I thought a perfect science complement to our Summer 2019 Theme of “A Universe of Stories” would be a stellar galaxy slime program! Read more >
Program 29: Wind-up Racers, the Slinky, and more!
Spring is in the air, so I thought this would be the perfect time of year for our Science Explorers Club to focus on the topic of Energy (potential and kinetic). Read more >
