Course Description
Your child who pokes at their food more than they eat it just found a class where that habit is the whole scientific method — Kitchen Mystery Phenomena Part 2 is four sessions of food science built around the questions most kids never think to ask! Why does a marshmallow hold its shape? Why do raisins dance? Why does bread rise without yeast? These aren't trivia questions — they're the entry point into real chemistry.! Each session in this series hands students a familiar kitchen ingredient and a mystery worth solving, then lets the science explain itself. The concepts are genuine — physical changes, chemical reactions, density, variables, acid-base chemistry — but they arrive through things students can see, touch, smell, and occasionally eat. The ingredients change. The reactions surprise. And somewhere between the dancing raisins and the soda bread they take home to bake, students stop following a recipe and start thinking like scientists. A few useful cooking skills may sneak in along the way too! Every concept is anchored in something students can hold in their hands before they're asked to understand it in their heads — which means the science sticks because the experience does first. That hands-before-theory approach helps this class to be accessible to any kind of learner. There's no single right way to engage, and every kind of learner finds their way into the kitchen.

Kitchen Chemists: Candy ChromatographyThis was such a fun and engaging class! My daughter loved the hands-on candy chromatography experiment and enjoyed learning how scientists use the scientific method to ask questions, make predictions, and draw conclusions. It was a wonderful blend of science, creativity, and fun!

Math Missions Live! Problem Solving AdventuresI recommend this class if you want your kids to "play" with math. This is no pressure math. Candice presents the "math mission" at the beginning of class. Then the students work through it in whatever way their brain works. Sometimes it's collaborative and sometimes its individual. She meets every kid where they're at. When my daughter needed a break from the traditional math lessons, this was our go to.

Kitchen Chemists: Oobleck!My daughter loves the whole Kitchen Chemist series. This Oobleck class was so fun. She played with it for days. What I love about Ms Parks is that she encourages the kids to be real scientists by asking questions, forming their own hypothesis and then testing it. She doesn't expect them to just do it exactly like she does. She encourages experimentation.
