We’re excited to announce the partnership between Steve Spangler Science and Mentos - actually the company who owns the Mentos brand Perfetti VanMelle USA. For the past six months, our Mentos mad scientists and a number of our Spangler Science teacher ambassadors from across the country have been working on new contraptions that produce the best geysers you’ve ever seen. More than a dozen Geyser Tubeâ„¢ toys and science kits will be released in the next eight months and will be available in toys stores (yes, the big ones) nationwide. What amazed me the most was the creativity that came from students and teachers in our quest to find the most unusual and innovative contraptions. Without giving too much away, you’ll see gizmos that twist, turn, fly, scream, power other devices and trigger a chain reaction (an idea that was used to help students understand a more complex nuclear chemistry reaction). The first round of toys will be available in mid-November. Stay tuned.
