Nivel Beginner
In this fun and interactive series, participants will explore the hidden science behind their favorite candies through three hands-on experiments. We’ll uncover the mysteries of candy colors, investigate the role of taste, and learn about the technique of chromatography—all through the lens of sweet treats!
Metas de aprendizaje
Participants will place M&M's or Skittles in warm water and observe how the candy shells dissolve, causing the letters to float.
Participants will taste flavored Life Savers while holding their noses and attempt to identify the flavors without the aid of smell.
