Welcome to the Education Buzz! Spring is finally here, and it’s time to go outside and drop some Mentos into a big bottle of Diet Coke.

Back already? That was AWESOME, wasn’t it? Aren’t you curious about the result of mixing two simple things? Well, aren’t you? Stay tuned. Sometimes all you have to do is be patient and pay attention, and all is made clear. Ask Newton.

You can join a discussion here on our blog about the right age for students to get involved in science fair. Is kindergarten too early? Then read all about a special boot camp that is changing the science fair experience.
