Description
Uncover the science of squish and flow with the NOVA Squishy Ball Lab! This hands-on chemistry kit invites young scientists to mix, pour, and experiment as they learn how polymers form and how materials behave in unexpected ways. Kids will have a blast creating 4 squishy slime stress balls, 2 Oobleck stress balls made from a non-Newtonian fluid, and a mesmerizing relaxation jar filled with glitter and sensory beads. Along the way, they’ll explore real chemistry concepts, including how ingredients interact to form new compounds and why Oobleck can act like both a solid and a liquid. It’s a fun and educational sensory science activity that helps kids practice focus, creativity, and curious thinking—all while making cool, tactile creations they can squeeze and enjoy. Since 1974, NOVA has been demystifying the science and technology that shapes and defines our lives, planet, and universe. Every year, more than 55 million Americans, including science educators and their students, watch this series for inspiring stories of human ingenuity, exploration, and the quest for knowledge.
