Heat/States of Matter – Cotton Candy Booth – learn the science behind this tasty treat. Watch how centrifugal force transforms sugar crystals to floss, and every child gets a cone to eat!

Polymers – Slime Booth – learn the basics of polymer structure. Everyone gets to make their own cup of ooey, gooey slime!

Also Polymers - Learn the basics of polymer structure and experience three different kinds of polymers: kinetic sand, orbs, and instant snow. The difference between these three illustrates how different polymers can be even though they have the same structure. Take home a cup of orbs or instant snow!

Electricity – Zap Attack Booth – Create "indoor lightning" and find out if things are conductors or insulators (including you!), and test your nerves with our own electrical buzzer game.
