Keep-It-Cold (insulation)
Test materials to slow melting and observe heating/cooling effects. See solids, liquids, gases in action. Covers heat transfer and states of matter.
Recommended for ages 6-8
About This Kit
Compare insulation materials using timed ice‑melt tests and observe expansion/condensation in heating/cooling demos. Covers conduction, convection, radiation (qualitative), phase change, and thermal expansion. Links to everyday choices (bottles, clothing) and experimental controls.
