I saw you on Ellen and was really impressed. We are always looking for new science experiments we can do at home to keep the kids entertained and learning, so finding your site was great! I already have a very long wish list started for Christmas starting with the instant snow. We live in South Texas and the snow will be a very special treat for all of us this year!! I can’t wait to see you on Ellen in November and will be sure to record it for my family.

I got your email about the upcoming Ellen appearance and set the TIVO because I knew it was something I didn’t want to miss. Thank you so much for giving teachers tons of new ideas to get kids hooked on science. I would love to attend your workshop in Dallas in October if I can get a sub for my kindergarten class.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments. My wife and I really had a great experience with Ellen and her staff (first class people all the way).

Here’s the info about the Trash Can Smoke Ring demo. The complete write-up is posted on the Smoke Rings page. It’s easy to make – have fun.

Well, we all knew Steve and his science tricks would be a big hit. I’m so glad Ellen asked you back. I had everyone I know watching you Friday and I taped the show so my family can watch it again and again. My son just said, “I want to meet him.” So when can you come to Arizona? Thanks again for all you do to make science a BLAST!

I was listening to my Ellen Podcast while working out and I almost feel off of the treadmill when I heard Ellen introduce Steve. I used to teach with him years ago and now he's on Ellen! Congratulations. Here's the link to the podcast.

Amazing is all I can say. I’m in college and I have always loved science but you took it to a new level and made it even more interesting. I loved the segment and I hope to see more of you. I know that these interesting experiments will encourage children everywhere to want to learn and that science can be fun. Best of luck in all you do.

Hey Steve!

Very nice job on the Ellen show. We had to hit rewind on the Tivo a few times when Ellen grabbed the shot glass of potassium iodide in order to replay your reaction. I’m going to guess that was not staged!

Again nice job!

Steve, congratulations on your appearance on the Ellen Show! I don’t know how many viewers she reaches, but I’m positive that there are probably thousands upon thousands of folks that are now inspired to do a little science…if not at their house…then at a friend’s house. Congratulations once again!
