Get ready for some festive science! Create a foamy holiday eruption while exploring the chemistry behind the classic Elephant Toothpaste experiment - reindeer style!

Celebrate the holiday season with a little messy science during YA Creators: Reindeer Toothpaste! Participants will put a festive twist on the classic Elephant Toothpaste experiment and watch an exciting chemical reaction produce a mountain of colorful foam. Along the way, participants will explore chemical reactions, catalysts, and exothermic reactions while making observations and discovering the science behind the eruption. It's a fun combination of holiday cheer, hands-on experimentation, and STEAM learning.
