Growing Bacteria, Glowing Germs, and Hidden Messages

Learn about germs and where they can be found!

This kit allows young students to observe bacteria growing in a petri dish and offers ways for older students to explore bacteria growth further. It helps young scientists develop an understanding of the scientific method while learning some awesome (and disgusting) science. The hands-on method, activity guide, and some gross science is all your child needs to get a kick out of the science fair.

Make a Science Fair Connection
If you want to do a science fair project about germs, you have to add a variable, or something that changes in the experiment.

For Teachers, Parents, Grandparents, and All-around Science Adults

We haven’t forgotten about the new STEM and STEAM initiatives you’ve been hearing about in our schools, bringing Science, Technology, Engineering, (Art), and Math together to make young scientists real thinkers! Look what your young scientists integrated into the Atomic Slime demonstrations.

Other Ways to Make into a Science Fair Project:

Here are some examples of independent variables. Choose only ONE independent variable to test:

Door Knobs – Which door knob has the most bacteria?

Mouths – Which mouth is the cleanest?

Dental Care – How clean does my mouth really get?
