Fun science based Christmas ornaments making workshop for kids

Sparkling Science: Grow Your Own Crystal Ornaments
Hosted by Wildflower Data and Learning
Ages 8 and up | Family-Friendly Workshop

Come discover the science behind the sparkle! In this hands-on holiday workshop, participants will transform everyday materials into glittering crystal ornaments while learning about one of nature’s most fascinating processes — crystallization.

Using simple household ingredients like borax, water, and pipe cleaners, you will create your own shimmering snowflakes, stars, or candy canes to hang on the tree or gift to someone special. As your ornaments form overnight, you will explore how temperature and saturation influence crystal growth and see chemistry come to life in a festive way.

This session blends creativity, art, and science in a welcoming, family-friendly environment. Perfect for curious kids and adults alike, it’s a beautiful way to celebrate the season through exploration and imagination.

All materials are provided, and every participant will take home their own crystal creation — plus the know-how to keep experimenting at home.

✨ Join us for a sparkling afternoon where science and holiday magic meet!

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
