Gizmos & Gadgets Kids Lab STEAM Show
Gizmos & Gadgets Kids Lab will do a hands on show with either building a catapult (or most likely a giant slingshot - angry birds style). We will get kids from the audience to help build it. We will then loft balls into the crowd (soft foam balls) - same concept as last year but with a slingshot. We are also thinking of having another short demo. Will be in touch with Heather to confirm. Last year we did the exploding fizzing rockets. We are wanting a similar wow factor at the end but different

Sally Ride Science @ UC San Diego
In this interactive science experiment, kids AND adults will get the opportunity to create a "Glowie". A “glowie” is a molded plastic glowing object. We’ll make the glowies with a safe, non-toxic, low temperature thermoplastic which is malleable when melted and clear like hot glue. It melts in tea water so it won't burn you, and will stay soft for a couple of minutes while it's warm to the touch. To make it glow we place an LED in it while its soft and attach a coin cell battery.
