Four on Friday, AC Gilbert House Science Fair

Last weekend we went to the AC Gilbert House Science fair with our friends Sarah & Elliot.

The very best event of the day was the Mentos & Diet Coke geyser. I must admit that the requirement that the kids wear rain ponchos did seem a little bit extreme, but it added to the excitement.

To prove that this is a science museum event, they had specially made Mentos dispensers that attached directly to the top of the 2-liter bottles:

And, wow!, what a display it was! The ponchos were totally needed as the kids were bathed in a downpour of soda!
