Happy New Year! Yeah, okay, we are a few days after the New Year, but why not continue to celebrate 2020 coming to an end? For the very first Science Sunday of 2021, we want to show you some ways you can re-use some of the supplies you have leftover from your New Years Eve festivities. Watch the full segment below to see how you can make fruit dance and create a hoverboard.
Share your experiments with us by using the #ScienceAtPlay and #CTScienceCenter, we would love to see what you create!
