Past Experiments

Bridge Building Exercise

Through the limit of using only 100 popsicle sticks, children were challenged to create a bridge that could withstand the maximum weight at a session in Tenafly Library. A lesson on architectural principles and simple physics before the start of the activity prepared them for this fun exercise! 

Coin Batteries

Through a lesson on circuits and electricity, students were exposed to a simple and easy way to create their very own batteries using coins, a homemade salt-vinegar solution, paper, and LED lights!

Clay Brains

Through a lesson on brain structure, students were guided through sculpting various brain components with clay and at the end, combining everything to form a whole brain.

Strawberry DNA

Through a lesson on DNA, students were exposed to a simple and easy way to extract DNA from strawberries using fruit, a detergent solution, and rubbing alcohol!
