Things are about to get poppin' with this experiment. 🍿 Make some dancing popcorn! This science experiment produces carbon dioxide (CO2) gas when different chemicals are mixed together. The gas that is formed makes the popcorn kernels rise to the surface of the liquid. The kernels fall back toward the bottom of the liquid when the gas is released. The up-and-down motion of the kernels makes it appear that the popcorn is, as the name of the experiment implies, dancing! 💃 | WeAreTeachers

The perfect chemical reaction experiment for kids! Use it during your Thanksgiving science experiments and STEM activities!
