Dear Psci-Commers I am currently working on a regional STEM enrichment and enhancement promotional project and the target audience is kids (KS3/4) and their parents/guardians. I would like to include a section on kitchen sink science. By this I mean a series of simple and safe experiments that can be carried out using equipment and materials found around a "normal" home. If any of you have any exciting/innovative examples of such experiments and know of links to other sources I'd be v grateful if you could reply to me off list.
