Freezing point depression (ice cream), gas laws (boil water at room
temp in a syringe, collapsing cans of various sorts, balloon in a
flask), molecular modeling with gummy candy and toothpicks, natural
dyes (pH and a bunch of biochem), soap making, paint making -- check
out Flinn's website for more possibilities.
Have fun,
