Hello Chad,

Here is a blurb we put together for our Spooky Science Weekend.

Slime:  Squeeze it, stretch it, bounce it!  Is it a solid? Watch
it slowly flow and spread – is it a liquid?  Make up a batch and
find out for yourself!

Goop: It’s slippery! It’s slimy! It dribbles and drips! Mix it
up and watch it ooze between your fingers and across the table. 
Perfect for creeping out your friends!

Magic Painting: Create beautiful pictures with paints from your
kitchen, then watch your art magically change color when you
apply the special ingredient.

Rattlesnake eggs: Uh-oh, what’s that sound? Somebody sent you
live snake eggs! Just kidding… Make these scary but harmless
noisemakers for yourself.

Shrieking cup:  Build a simple, spooky musical instrument that
is great for haunted house sound effects!

Dancing raisins:  Watch the raisins as they rise and dive in
this amazing display.  Learn the secret behind their mysterious
motions!

Secret messages: A completely white sheet of paper can’t hold a
message, right?  Create glowing notes and find out why what you
see isn’t always what is there.

Scary animals: Fact or fiction?  How much do you know about
creatures that go bump in the night?  Take our true-false quiz,
win a prize, and find out!

Giant Pumpkin: This big, beautiful gourd wants to go home with
you – guess it’s weight correctly, and it will!


Let me know if you want more details on these...
