Hello All

So, in our basement we are doing a Frankensteins Lab for our Halloween Party. We have a full size Frank with electricity poles on each side, some beakers, jar of bubbling eyeballs, etc, But, I would like it to be interactive for the little ones...so, I need ideas for things the kids can feel in the dark. I have the two obvious...peeled grapes for eyeballs and spaghettis fro guts...or brains...what else is out there that wont make a huge mess? Any ideas would be very much appreciated!

And any other lab ideas too!

When we did our mad lab theme, our guests were adults but act like children lol
We had a chalkboard with blibber babble formulas written all over but had a hidden message in it (word find)
They also loved the transformation box. That would also be appropriate for children and has knobs lol
Oh and test tubes with tonic water in them....they glow.

Ohh we have test tubes already....how do you use the tonic water? Do you just put it in there or do you need something else? Great idea!

I think my mad scientist slipped some gin in those test tubes with the tonic water lol
But you can drink it just plain. Has a slightly bitter taste. You could add something to it to sweeten it up for the kids but not sure if it would still glow or not. Might want to test it out first under a black light.

If we just want to use them as part of a display, do we just pour in the tonic water and thats it, besides black lighting it?

probably nothing of use here, but this was my 2009 lab scene

Sort of a mish-mosh of rusty machinery, old electronics, and random cool stuff

Thanks! They're servo-controlled, programmed by an SSC-32 board and VSA software. The two with faces are 3-axis skulls underneath with foam latex skins.
