I made this capsule in rocket camp last summer. It was supposed to protect the egg-stro-naut, that’s what we call the eggs that we use as astronauts inside our rockets. My capsule did not protect the egg! I had to make a new one! ScienceWorks says: Yep – science is all about testing and re-testing!…

I took apart this hairdryer to see what was inside. I found a heating element, a switch with two settings, a fan, and a little motor! ScienceWorks says: Looking inside of machines is a great way to learn how the world works. Good thinking!   

This is a drawing machine from summer camp last year. I programmed it! ScienceWorks says: That is cute! Why are there two sets of brushes? It is very interesting… Write and tell us!

This is a diorama I made in Mushroom Summer Camp that explains how the trees communicate! ScienceWorks says: We are blown away by how cool it is that trees talk through the underground fungi network! We are so happy you learned this in one of our awesome Summer Camps! See you in summer camp 2021!

ScienceWorks says: This is a diorama Ember made in Distance Learning Camp. It is all about Wolves! It is a staff favorite because of the habitat details!

It’s a refillable lighter with the nozzle from a BBQ lighter and the fuel restrictor valve turned to the left so it lets out more fuel at once. It does not come with an ignition system because the one that came with was too hard to push down. I got the idea while building a…

I got a Magic Rocks kit for Xmas! I followed the directions and it worked! ScienceWorks says: “That’s so neat, Leah! Magic Rocks are chunks of metal salts that have been stabilized in aluminum hydroxide. When mixed with the sodium silicate solution that comes in the kit, the salts form cool looking towers! Thanks for…
