Home Experiments

Do your own scientific investigations.

Many scientists and inventors made some their greatest discoveries at home.

You could be one of them — use the experimental protocols below and become a scientist yourself!

Send us photos of your experiments and the outcomes — the successful ones as well as your epic fails!

No worries if your experiments don’t work the first time you try. Remember that at least some scientists made their most important discoveries when things did not exactly go according to plan - this is how Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, as you can find out in our reading corner.
