Bacteria Growth Kit

"Ok, yes, thinkgeek.com is selling a bacterial growth kit as well. But this one's better. See, besides the petri dishes and growing material (nutrient broth) this kit also has 5 sterile swabs, iodine and alcohol. The swabs are great 'cause you can swab anything (including you) with safety and know that whatever grows on the plate was what you sampled - not already on the swab. Ok, so I'm a stick..."

"Even us scientists sometimes have to divert our eyes of the computer screen to quench that roaring in our stomach. Pizza and Pringles and Ramen Soups be our staple food, but now comes a cookbook with recipes intriguing enough to be worthy of our attention."

We probably stayed because w..."

Ths is full of experiments and projects geared to the elementary-school age kids to get then into science. You can build a barometer, make a soap-propelled boat, get a balloon to inflate itself, and more."

Spangler's Geyser Tube

1 recommendation

"Conducting crackpot experiments with everyday items is one of life's great pleasures. When you're ten. If you're still carrying out half-baked 'research' with helium balloons, baking soda and old chemistry sets past the age of fifteen, you really should take a long hard look at yourself. And once you've done that you should buy the spectacularly infantile Geyser Tube."
