Discovery Education at the USA Science and Engineering Festival on the National mall

Today I helped at Discovery Education's booth at the giant science festival at the Mall.  Kids would walk through and we would do different activities with them.  The one activity that I worked with the most is an easy experiment that kids can do.  You take two soda bottles and tape them together with water in them and you flip it over and shake it.  The outcome of the air moving up from one bottle to the other from the shaking is a tornado in the top bottle.  Kids would watch me do it then try it themselves.  It was a lot of fun and I got the opportunity to work with other Discovery Education employees.
