Science Fair Fun

(Can you guess what I was helping with this afternoon?)

It’s Science Fair time, with all that that brings
Electrical gizmos and bright, shiny things
To probe and to poke and to get to the facts
To add this to that and see how it reacts
To find the pH of a lemon, and then
Plug in some electrodes and measure again
Then see what the amps and the voltages read
Did I get any power? I did, yes indeed!
Or maybe I’ll make a volcano instead
With vinegar lava all foamy and red
Perhaps grow some crystals, all colors and shapes
Or maybe I’ll just burn a hole in the drapes
But the key to it all, when things start to go bad
Is to act all confused and just leave it to Dad
