Bundle Item Details

Last time we checked, rocket fuel is still a no-go in the classroom, and that’s why Flying Film Canisters are so cool! A simple mixture of the Flat Fizzers and water results in an explosive, rocketing film canister that would make NASA jealous. These plastic, super-sturdy canisters are the best we’ve ever seen, specially made to ensure the biggest, best pop every time.

How much water does it take to create the biggest launch? How much of a Flat Fizzer do you need? You’ll have to test mixtures to be sure! Don’t settle for regular film canisters that don’t give you the pop you need. Get your hands on the Flying Film Canisters and blast off!

What’s Included?
  • Flying Film Canisters 15-pack with lids

What Does It Teach?
When you have gas building-up in an enclosed space, what happens? Wait… don’t answer that. More specifically, what happens when CO2 builds up in a closed film canister? Simple – an explosion so fun you won’t want the popping to stop. The key to the fun is the Flat Fizzers. These tablets are made of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and citric acid. These non-toxic components dissolve and mix in water, creating carbon dioxide. The gas is too much to contain in the closed canister and it builds until:
3… 2… 1… You know the rest.

  • Film canisters for all your experiments!
  • Use with our Flat Fizzers and water to make a rocketing film canister
  • An explosive lesson in air pressure and motion

Bundle Item Details

The Geyser Tube® is a loading tube for the now famous Diet Coke geyser powered by MENTOS. If you’ve ever tried doing the experiment, you know how difficult it can be to drop the MENTOS into the bottle before the reaction takes off… and you’re soaking wet. The Geyser Tube will give you a perfect launch every time with time to stand back.

Attach the Geyser Tube to any bottle of soda (but diet soda works best because it’s not sticky – no sugar!) Secure the trigger pin in place. Load the MENTOS into the tube, lock the special pressurizing nozzle in place and pull the pin. Oh, by the way, it’s best to pull the pin and then run away. The MENTOS drop into the bottle and the powerful soda geyser comes shooting out the top with enough pressure to reach an incredible height of 30 feet. That’s a record!

Improvements to the Geyser Tube have taken the geyser-creating tool to a whole new level. The trigger mechanism now has a double pull pin action, making sure there’s no unwanted eruptions. When you’re ready to pull the pin, a tighter seal means that you can achieve a 30 foot geyser with as few as two MENTOS candies.

You also have the option of attaching three different Geyser Tube caps: Fountain, Fan, or “Runaway.” Choose the shape of your geyser with three new Geyser Tube caps. Pick your Fountain cap to create a three spout geyser that resembles a fountain, the Fan cap to create a fan-shaped soda geyser, or the Run Away cap. Let’s just say you won’t want to stick around to see the shape that the last one makes.

What’s Included:
  • Extreme Geyser Tube®
  • New and improved Geyser Tube
  • Double pull pin action
  • Pressurizing nozzle
  • Improved threading
  • Roll of MENTOS chewy mints
  • Fountain geyser cap
  • Fan geyser cap
  • “Runaway” geyser cap
  • Instructions for creating the ultimate soda geyser

Steve Spangler Science® At-Home Science Kit: Screaming Balloons

Item # essb6Package
Steve Spangler Science® At-Home Science Kit: Screaming Balloons_0
Steve Spangler Science® At-Home Science Kit: Screaming Balloons_1
Steve Spangler Science® At-Home Science Kit: Screaming Balloons_2

Bundle Item Details

Welcome to an awesome Science-At-Home fun activity where you’ll have some fun making spooky sounds and learning about the “science of sound.” It’s all about inertia, sound and vibration in this cool kit.

  • Get hands-on with science at home
  • Learn about centripetal force and the science of sound
  • A memorable & attention grabbing lab, both visually and audibly
  • A fun science activity to stay engaged with learning at home

How It Works: Thanks to the laws of inertia and some centripetal motion, the penny flips up on its edge and spins around the inside of the balloon. However, try substituting one of our hex nuts for the penny and you get a screaming balloon! The unique shape of the hex nut vibrates the walls of the balloon to produce a wonderfully annoying sound.

What’s Included:
  • 12 clear, latex balloons
  • 8 zinc hex nuts
  • Step-by-step activity guide

Bundle Item Details

An awesome Science-At-Home activity where you'll have fun exploring some of the scientific properties of air and water as you create a tornado in a bottle. An exciting experiment featuring a close-up look at a tornado vortex.

The vortex in this experiment is created when gravity pulls a liquid through an opening to form a rotating tornado. But this one is just a "model in a bottle."

  • Get hands-on with science at home
  • Create and observe your very own vortex
  • Learn about kinetic and potential energy
  • A fun science activity to stay engaged with learning at home

Includes:
  • 2 - 1 Litter plastic bottles
