We offer freedom along with quality resources, information, activities and support to those homeschooling in Alabama. We believe that the parent has the best interests of their children at heart. We believe that the parent is the first and only teacher that a child needs. In keeping with this philosophy, we wish to be a very hands-off cover school and allow the parent to lead and guide their children in the direction and at the pace they feel is best suited to their children. We ask only for what the law requires while offering support along with quality resources to aid families in their efforts.

Candy Experiments

Age Range: All (Children will need adult supervision.)
As explained at the website, this all began when her daughter asked a life-changing question: "What would happen if I put these Nerds in water?" 
That first candy experiment led to many with results like these:
"Drop a Warhead in baking soda water, and bubbles erupt. Leave a Skittle in water, and the S floats to the surface. Melt a Starburst, and shiny oil spots form."
When you get to the site you'll see a menu of candy experiments.  Click on any one and a new page opens with a list of materials needed and instructions on how to conduct the experiment. Try:
  • Pixie Stix Acid Test
  • M&M chromatography
  • Skittles Density Rainbow
  • Life Savers Lights
  • Starburst Oil Test
  • ~And Many More!
