Alpha science classroom：DIY glow in the dark jelly toys

The important reason why children like Halloween is about candy. As on this day, the children can ask for sugars from adults and this is happy, isn’t it? And on Halloween, how could it be without glow in the dark toys? Is there anything better than a glow in the dark edible jelly toys? Today, Alpha science classroom will share these Halloween science experiments with us to do glow in the dark jelly toys together. So the kids would be with science magic like Doctor Who and be the greatest magician. 

Alpha science classroom：Glow in the dark jelly recipe

1 cup tonic water

1 packet jello mix (we chose lime for extra glow power!)

1 tbsp sugar

1 cup of cold water

Safety reminds of Alpha science toys: In this science experiment for kids, boiling water is needed. It may be dangerous for kids to touch the boiling water so the adults shall help kids to complete the task. So your kids can enjoy the Halloween science experiments happily, meanwhile, they can learn science knowledge.

Alpha science classroom：Steps for DIY glow in the dark jelly toys

Step 1: Boil the tonic water on medium heat, it boils very quickly, so watch it closely

Step 2: In a bowl mix the jello powder and sugar together. Pour in the boiling tonic water and carefully stir. Then add cold water and pour it into the mold. Let set in the fridge for 6 hours.

(Step 1 and Step 2 are dangerous for kids, so the parents can help them to do it.)

Step 3:It was super easy. We made more jello following the directions, but instead of heating up water, we used tonic water! Then we added sugar to counter the tartness of the tonic (I didn’t say this was remotely healthy!)

Step 4: We mixed up the jello and poured it into the super-duper to the clear solution immediately. Pour into the cake mold and wait for a few hours, take it out, and break out the black light. Ready to scream for the awesome toys.

At last, Alpha science classroom reminds it, once your glowing jelly is finished per instructions, you will know that if we use an ice tray to make the jelly, much water would be lost to become rigid. So remember to use cake mold as it is so soft. Also, you can use any soft silicon mold as long as it can be soft to take out the jelly without breaking it.

When the Halloween science experiments are finished, the kids must be excited. And Halloween is coming, you can prepare more jelly toys and pack them with a gift box. They would be a great gift to your good friends and enjoy DIY glow in the dark jelly toys together.

Alpha science toys know that the boys like glow in the dark jelly toys. They always like to do glow in the dark science experiment. Alpha science toys hope this Halloween science experiment can bring joy to the children.
