🧪✨ Chemical Magic Lab — Illusion Breakers
A Scientific Thinking Experience for Primary 3–6
✨ What Your Child Will Experience?
In this hands-on workshop, students investigate a series of surprising changes that may look like “magic” at first glance.
Instead of simply watching demonstrations, they are guided to examine what actually happened, question first impressions, and decide whether the change is real or only appears dramatic.
No prior science knowledge is required — only curiosity.
🧠 Skills Developed
Through guided investigations, students practise: ✔ Careful observation ✔ Comparing changes ✔ Distinguishing appearance from evidence ✔ Logical reasoning ✔ Explaining decisions clearly ✔ Working with uncertainty These are important thinking skills used in school science learning and everyday problem-solving.
🎓 What Parents Often Notice After the Session
Children may: ✔ Ask more thoughtful questions ✔ Explain their ideas more clearly ✔ Become less easily impressed by surface effects ✔ Show greater patience when solving problems ✔ Gain confidence discussing scientific ideas
🛡 Safety & Child-Friendly Design
• Non-toxic, food-safe materials only • No fire, flames, or dangerous chemicals • Clear safety instructions and close supervision • All activities designed specifically for children Parents can be assured this workshop is safe, structured, and purposeful.
🧩 How This Workshop Is Different
Many science activities focus on excitement or “wow” effects. This programme focuses on helping children understand how scientists decide what is actually happening. Students are encouraged to: Look beyond colour, bubbles, or movement Compare different situations before concluding Use evidence rather than guesses Accept when information is insufficient The emphasis is on thinking — not memorising facts.
🏫 Workshop Details
Age: Primary 3 – Primary 6 Duration: 60–90 minutes Group size: Flexible Venue: Suitable for classrooms, halls, and student care centres
🧭 Overall Outcome
Students experience how scientists evaluate evidence and avoid being misled by appearances. The goal is not to perform experiments — but to learn how to decide what evidence can be trusted.
