Item #: WFLM-250 In Stock

Everyone loves a film canister experiment... but in this digital-age, where can you find a film canister? We’ve been asking ourselves the same thing for a long time, but now, we are bringing back film canister science. These super-sturdy film canisters are the best we’ve ever seen and were specially made for Steve Spangler Science to ensure the biggest pop. And, unlike regular film canisters, our Flying Film Canisters have graduations on the side for accurate scientific explorations. Our activity kit includes 10 film canisters, 5 packages of Alka-Seltzer, 1 canister launcher and 1 pair of safety glasses. Lose a few canisters during your experimentation? No problem, we also sell them in bulk packages of 10 and 30. Recommended for children ages 6 and up.

What's included?

  • 10 Film canisters
  • 1 Pair of Safety glasses
  • 5 Packages of Alka-Seltzer

What does it teach?

When you mix Alka-Seltzer with water you are in for an explosive lesson in air pressure and motion!

This kit was so much fun. Once I got over the heart attack that resulted from the shock of how this experiment plays out, we all had a blast! It's the simple Alka-Seltzer in water creates carbon dioxide experiment but with an explosive twist. This experiment is completely safe to do indoors, but not around anything breakable. I would also definitely recommend using the included safety glasses. Luckily we had extra sets of goggles. It doesn't make much mess, juts a little spilled water. We covered the table with a garbage bag and had almost no clean up. The Flying Film Canisters Kit is a fantastic introduction to chemical reactions and the effects of air pressure. The set includes 10 film canisters, a pair of safety glasses, 5 packages of Alka-Seltzer, and 1 canister launcher.

Awsomee!!
