Cool Science Live-stream Lab
​RSVP Form


Join us every Thursday at 3 pm MDT for a live-streamed hands-on STEM lab for kids in partnership with Concrete Couch.  This week (July 9th) we'll be learning how biologists dissect a specimen, which means to carefully cut it open and examine it scientifically.  Our specimen for this lab will be a lemon.  We'll identify its parts, learn some interesting facts and even show you a couple cool citrus science tricks!

This hands-on lab is ideal for all kid scientists ages 5-14 (younger kids with adult supervision), but space is limited so sign up soon.  Here is a summary of what you will need to participate:

  • One or two lemons​
  • Butter knife
  • Cutting board (or plate)
  • Paper towels or napkins
  • Glass
  • 2-3 teaspoons sugar
  • Water

Optional (with parental supervision):
  • Sharp or serrated knife
  • Candle (and match or lighter)
  • Balloons (water bombs work well)
  • Other citrus fruits (orange, lime, etc.)

Hope we'll see you Thursday, and until then, this video from our YouTube channel should also get you in the July 4th spirit!

For more hands-on STEM activities you can do at home anytime be sure to check out Try Science at Home and our Facebook page (where we post a new activity every day).  You also can watch a sample lab.
