If it is Halloween time and you want to entertain your kids, then you might be looking for some nice ideas. Well, you can arrange for some dry ice experiments, which will look like a magic show. You can easily do many different things with dry ice, as it shows different reactions with different elements. The kids will love when they see bubbles coming out from a cylinder. Yes, you can do such dry ice experiments very easily. All you need to do is to fill a plastic cylinder or a tall glass container with some warm water and then add a little liquid dish soap to it. Then place the piece of dry ice with the help of tongs. A little later, the bubbles will start coming out of the mixture from the cylinder.

Try the trick of floating bubbles

There are many dry ice experiments, which can catch attention of people. You can try the floating bubble experiment, because a blend of CO2 and water is heavier than air. You can do this experiment with a fish aquarium. Just fill the aquarium’s base with warm water and then place the dry ice into it. Instantly smoke will start to come up. Now, simply use bubble liquid and bubble wand to blow some bubbles into this aquarium. In such dry ice experiments, you will see that the bubbles float in the aquarium in mid air.

Sound lens with a balloon

A few dry ice experiments can be performed with simple things and gives out interesting results. You can use a balloon filled with CO2 gas as a sound lens with such dry ice experiments. This happens because sound travels slowly in carbon dioxide, as compared to air. You should not use an over-inflated balloon or a balloon, which has remaining dry ice pieces in it. This can lead the balloon to burst and can result into permanent or temporary deafness. Once you have a proper inflated balloon with carbon dioxide gas, you can hold it at about a distance of one foot and then listen to distant and faint sounds like ticking clock, or low volume radio, which will appear to be louder.

Make a bubbling beverage

A quality of dry ice is that it can be utilized for carbonating water for creating sparkling water or drink. This enables you to try some fun dry ice experiments. You can fill up a pitcher or bowl with water or apple juice and put a dry ice with tongs. You will immediately see that the mixture is burping and bubbling, while your drink is just being carbonated with the dry ice. Therefore, you can make sparkling drinks with such dry ice experiments.

Make the spoon sing

This is one of the easiest dry ice experiments, as you just have to hold one warm spoon and press it alongside a piece of dry ice. Such dry ice experiments make the spoon scream loudly. The dry ice turns to gas because of the spoon’s heat and this pressure push away the spoon and the spoon fall back again. This cycle repeat in such a speed that the vibration of the spoon gives out the singing sound.
