The snacks have been tried and tested with hundreds of teachers and
students and have been popular with both. In addition to the Fog
Chamber snack, there is a whole list of other snacks on the Snacks pages
at http://www.exploratorium.edu/snacks/ (which are indexed by subject at
http://www.exploratorium.edu/snacks/snacksbysubject.html) and more
activities on the
Institute for Inquiry activities page at
http://www.exploratorium.edu/IFI/activities/index.html
Hope this helps.
