Dry Ice Wonders


One of our latest learning experiences...

Dry Ice!













Did you know???

that dry-ice is also known as frozen CO2?

that dry-ice is unbearably freezing cold to the touch?

that when you press metal tongs to the ice it makes a high pitched screaming sound?

that if everyone puts their faces around the bowl and blows all at the same time, a plume of "smoke" goes straight up in the air?

that sniffing the "smoke" makes your nose tingle?

that if you watch very carefully, you can see little "O's" in the "smoke"?

that you can scoop and hold the "smoke" in the cup of your hand and pass it along?

that white grape juice always tastes better with dry-ice?

that you can buy it at the grocery store for just 1$ a pound and enjoy an hour of fun and learning?



I am looking forward to doing this again with our Youth at Church. 
I am planning a Very exciting Bible School full of Science!!!


Thank you Lord for your wonders!

Dinner tonight:  Chicken, Roasted Potatos, Peas and Streusel Cake
