I've got an easy STEM activity to impress your kids! Since it's spring as I'm writing this, we're going with flowers, as in Botany! (But you can do this any time of year.)

All you need are bulbs, water, and one week. Voila!

Which beverage is the one most consumed by humans? If you guessed tea, you'd be right!

With this fact in mind, it follows that tea is one of the oldest beverages known to man! Its beginnings date to prehistory, a time shrouded in legend and myth.

Whenever I see an article announcing a new species, it’s usually about some bacteria or slug. Not that they don’t deserve a spot in the ecosystem, but well, slugs are not exciting.

Octopuses definitely are! Not only are they smart, they are masters of disguise. Their cool appearance and unique behavior make them legendary and loved.

Want a sublime cup of coffee? I know the secret. I'm not one of those people who refuses to share recipes and tricks, either! (We all know someone like that...)

First, we need to talk about science. Don't groan, it's true. Everything is about science! STEM is king.

Bionic eyes-- also referred to as cybernetic eyes-- are closer than you think! 

While I was researching this post, I tweeted a quick poll. Even with a disappointingly small sample size, my results were unanimous.

Best and gluten free in the same sentence? No, it’s not a mistake. I’ve been experimenting. This is the time of binge baking, binge gardening, and hopefully NOT binge cleaning.

I’ve figured out how to make the best gluten free breakfast bread. How? It’s all about the science, of course.

Hand sanitizers or soap?  Which is scientifically proven to work best to keep us safer? Soap versus hand sanitizers has become more of an issue than ever!

Let’s look at the science behind soap. And look at the science behind hand sanitizers. We'll see how each one works and whether or not they destroy viruses and bacteria. Then compare the two. We'll find our answer. Go science.

Magnetism feels like magic! If you’ve ever held two magnets close, they either attract or repel. It feels spooky!

I’m going to show you a cool STEM experiment to impress your kids! Instant magic. It’s easy, I promise. Plus, this skill could help you find your way out of the woods. You’ll be a bad…I mean cool, no matter what!

Do you believe in The Easter Bunny? Mermaids? The Tooth Fairy? All of these are indeed beliefs. But medicine is not a belief. And not all medicine is based on fact. But it is based on evidence.

Evidence shows that vaccines save lives. Vaccines are a miracle of modern medicine.

What the heck is CRISPR and why did two women win a 2020 Nobel prize in chemistry for an acronym? CRISPR is a game changer. CRISPR is science that will change lives.
