Merge Cubes: On the large screen, children could see augmented reality, large scale, when handling a Merge Cube. Using a planet app, it looked like children had planets in the palm of their hands, while they were really holding just a cube. There were 2 tablets other tablets at this station with fun interactive touch screen games.

Acidity: Using litmus paper, children saw various liquids being tested for their pH levels. Coca Cola, mouthwash, bleach, lemon juice, vinegar to name a few.

Lava Lamp: There was water and food colouring at the bottom of these tall glass tubes. Oil was then poured in and it floated to the top. A reaction kept happening at the bottom giving off carbon dioxide and bubbles were going crazy inside the glass. It was fascinating to watch.

There were also M&Ms at this table and we saw how hot water made their colour dissolve. This colour was able to be collected by paper afterwards.
