Our Favorite Christmas Science Experiment?

My son loved both the candy cane experiments because, well, he got to eat candy. He also really liked the Christmas Circuit. He’s been really into learning about electricity lately thanks to Life Of Fred beginner reader series and we have watched the Magic School Bus gets Charged episode about 3 or 4 times in the past few weeks. So that was a PERFECT experiment for him. Oh, and the Reindeer toothpaste! That was another one he really liked. We ended up doing several times. Really, they are all great experiments!

Have you done any of these? Which were your favorites?
