What is dry ice?
It can take the form of liquid, gas or solid --
all at the same temperature of -109.3° F.

Dad put little chunks of dry ice in a glass of hot water.
Anna dipped a paper towel in super-soapy water and rubbed it over the rim of a bowl which held a chunk of dry ice. The film of soap held the dry ice vapor and formed a large bubble.
When the bubble pops, the remaining vapor spills over.
Andrew & Anna covered the bowl of dry ice in plastic wrap and kept a tight seal.
Eventually...Pop!
Next, Dad & Anna made a fog machine.
First, Anna scooped chunks of dry ice into a pyrex pitcher.
As soon as the chunks hit the water, Dad covered it with plastic wrap.
They let the vapors escape out the spout.
Cue Special Effects!
Can't imagine more fun on a Sunday night.
