26 Items you can find in my science supply cabinet

June 16, 2015 by Paige Hudson

26 Items you can find in my science supply cabinetOne of my tips in the post 5 tips for experiment success, was to have the supplies for your experiment on hand. I mentioned how I keep a well-stocked science supply cabinet in my house.

Today, I wanted to give you all a peek inside of my house by sharing with you guys 26 items, from A to Z, that you can find in my science supply cabinet.

This list is in no way exhaustive! For B – I could have put balloons, batteries, beads, borax, and so on. But I figured that would get super boring! Instead, it is just the highlights.

Let’s get to the list!

26 Items you can find in my science supply cabinet

A – Alligator Clips

B – Batteries (AA, AAA, D, and Lantern-size)

C – CD’s

D – Detergent

E – Eyedroppers

F – Food Coloring

G – Gravel

H – Hydrogen Peroxide

I – Iron Filings

J – Jars with Lids

K – Kits of Tools (Flashlight, Gloves, Permanent Marker, Tape, and Tweezers)

L – Liquid Bluing

M – Magnifying Glass

N – Neodymium Magnets

O – Oodles of Balls (Bouncy, Cotton, Foam, Golf, and Ping-pong)

P – Packs of Paper Clips and Pins

Q – Quarters

R – Rubber bands

S – String

T – Toothpicks

U – UV-sensitive Beads

V – Various Types of Salt (Epsom, Rock, and Table)

W – Wire (Aluminum, Copper – Bare and Insulated, and Iron)

X – Extra Thermometers

Y – Yeast

Z – Zillions of Straws

I trust that this list gives you an idea of what you could get to stock your very own science supply kit!

    Paige – thank you for this post! I’m constantly wondering how to keep my science ‘corner’ stocked so I have things on hand for impromptu experiments (and planned ones!) I also enjoyed ready 5 tips for Easy Experiments! Tracy

Welcome to the Elemental Blogging Laboratory

 
profile picWelcome to the Elemental Blogging Laboratory, a.k.a. the Eb Lab. Here at the lab, I have the pleasure of sharing with you all my passion for mixing up solutions for homeschool science! My name is Paige Hudson. I am a homeschooling mom and science curriculum writer for Elemental Science.
 
Why do I call this blog the "Eb Lab"? It is because I am scientist at heart and by profession, so it pretty much spills into everything I do. I love to share tips and tools with fellow educators as they seek to share science with their students!
 
That is what this blog is all about. One homeschooler to another, sharing her area of expertise, seeking to support you as you teach your students about the wonders of science.
 
So, grab your lab coat, notebook, and goggles...well maybe not the goggles because let's face it nobody looks good in those...and you probably don't have a lab coat lying around your house either...
 
So, grab a cup of coffee and notebook, and head on in to the Eb Lab to gather tools for homeschool science, tips for homeschooling, and the latest Elemental Science news!
