Age Range: 5-11 (About grades K-6, and older students may enjoy some of the
experiments as well.)

ClickSchooling subscriber Jeff Brodsky suggested this website that his kids
really enjoy. The site is the home of the Weird Science Kids program in
Lakewood, California that brings science classes to elementary schools and
afterschool programs for a fee. However, many of the science experiments
they use are archived at the website - and you can access them for free!

When you get to the site, you'll see an introduction explaining the Weird
Science Kids Program. Use the menu at the top of the screen and click on
"Fun Experiments." A new page opens with a menu of enticing Chemistry and
Earth Science activities such as:

*Fake Blood
*Ink and Secret Messages
*Make Your Own Fire Extinguisher
*Snowstorm In A Can
*Make Your Own Rain

- and many, many more!

Click on any one, and a new pages opens with a materials list, instructions,
pictures and illustrations, and an explanation of the science behind the
experiment.

Have fun!
