Meteorology Demos via Think Thank Thunk
Not exactly thrilling revelations or state-of-the-art technical equipment, but this blogger at Think Thank Thunk reminded me of the simplicity that science experiments can take on for a purposeful and fun learning session. It's amazing how often in our adult lives that we take for granted the most basic of scientific principles that govern how the world around us operates. Lastly, as I touched on last week with the elementary science fair, experiments can be a lot of fun - no matter how old you are! Now that the weather is becoming more agreeable, I urge you to take a weekend and explore some simple but engrossing science experiments, not only to enrich the education of the children in your life, but also to re-learn all those things that you've forgotten over the years!
Here's a couple good links for DYI science!

And a classic... Mentos Fountains!!
