Tots to Teens: Tiny atoms make big reactions at Cork Carnival of Science

How do planes fly? What can fossils tell us about the past? And what can rugby teach us about the laws of physics? These questions, and many more, will be answered at this year’s Cork Carnival of Science in Fitzgerald’s Park on June 7 and 8. This free family event promises two action-packed days of science-based fun. Its interactive exhibits, demonstrations, and performances includes the Budding Botanicals, which introduces children to the chemistry of plants and the surprising reactions when certain natural substances are mixed together.

The Fossil Roadshow will also show them how to identify fossils and examine them for clues to prehistoric life.
