Recommend for 6 years & up with adult supervision.
You get enough materials to make about 50 meters (160 ft) of Worms!
What's included?
- 1-Liter of Atomic Worm Goo Solution
- 60 Grams of Worm Activator
- 1 small squirt bottle
- 1 Blue measuring scoop
- 1 Mini Black Light
What does it teach?
Atomic Insta-Worms is a great way to introduce students to the chemistry behind polymers. Worm Goo is a long chain of molecules called a polymer. When the Worm Goo comes in contact with the Activator, the goo immediately changes from a liquid to a solid! That’s because the Activator acts a cross-linking solution that links the long strands of polymers in the goo together. All of these science secrets are made even better with the addition of our special coloring agent that fluoresces under black light. When the energy from the black light “excites” the fluorescent dye, you end up with a brightly glowing, very exciting, ooey, gooey experiment! (For the full glowing effect, you will need to purchase a large black lightProduct FAQHow much does it make?

Don't keep it too long!
Mom - August 5, 2012
I purchased a large kit of the insta-worms. But we let the chemicals sit for months, and when we mixed them, we just made a cloudy fluid. I'm sure this is a great kit, just don't wait too long to use it! |

The Louisiana Children's Discovery Center had a great time at our "Super Science After Hours" event and these Atomic Worms helped make it a huge hit! Kids were amazed with them and had tons of questions! |

Insta-Worm Hit!
Sharon from 4-H Butternut Boosters in Lake Crystal, MN - December 9, 2010
I am letting you know that the Insta-Worms were a great success for the 4-H project that we presented for our local Duck Days in Lake Crystal, MN. The 4-H Butternut Boosters relied on your services and delivered a fun, and exciting project for our club to present to the community. Thank you for your wonderful exploration into science, that makes science fun! You're Da' Bomb! |

Great!
Marcia Ostendorff - October 30, 2010
Worked beautifully. Good example of a chemical reaction. The worms actually feel cold for quite a while after being removed from the solution. Works if you squeeze the worm goo into a jar of pickles, too! Take a few pickles out so there is room to see the worms with the black light. |
