Science Club – Flubber, Rubber and Slime

Experiment, discover and have fun at our monthly Science Club for ages 5-9.

Go gooey for slime this summer! Discover the fascinating world of plastic and make natural polymers at this month’s club. Plastic is everywhere, but what is it – and can we help our world by understanding more about it? We’re all tackling pollution by re-using, recycling and reducing, but it’s our young scientists of tomorrow who will invent new ways to help protect the environment. In this fun session we’ll flash the plastic and investigate the chemistry of this sticky substance, produce polymers from milk and get stuck in with slime.
