They’re… ALIVE! Hop to it and discover how electricity powers nature in strange and unusual ways. Make your own folded paper frog, then bring your little amphibian amigo to life using static electricity, the pulsating force found in everything from buzzing bees to lightning flashes. Just like the experiments that sparked Mary Shelley’s imagination and powered up Frankenstein, come and create your own franken-frog and get creative with current, in this fun-filled craft activity.
