Christmas in a Test Tube

Biology-Chemistry Laboratory

Take a trip to the winter laboratory and get ready for a special mission – to use science to preserve Christmas for a long time. Here you will memorize the answers to the questions: is it possible to feel snow when it is sleet outside the window? What materials glow in the dark like holiday lights?

You will learn more about fluorescence, create glowing solutions, use chemical reagents to make fake snow, awaken olfactory receptors by creating a festive home scent, feel the winter cold by experimenting with ice and studying the variety of stabilized snowflakes through a microscope.

Using the tricks of chemistry, physics and biology, you will create a festive mood – you will make the solutions glow, and you will preserve Christmas in a test tube for a long time.
