I love the website. I even made the kids badges (like they were true scientists) they were so interested. I am also looking for cool programs I can do with the kids at the library. Also thanks for letting me know about the festival I will definitely keep that in mind. I don't live that far away and I would love to see what is out there. That I could incorporate into my programs. I came across candyexperiments.com when I was trying to do a program called Science in the Library. I love the website.

We've explored lots of basic science concepts, and it's also helped them learn to ask questions about everything else in life. As a mom, I've tried to do better at researching and answering those questions. People all across the country are trying to interest more children in science. That's why I'm joining hundreds of other organizations in Washington DC in October to present science activities at the USA Science and Engineering Festival. If you're on the National Mall on October 23 or 24, be sure to check it out. I’ve enjoyed seeing how much my children love investigating with candy experiments.
