About this idea

The elf sets up a 'mad scientist laboratory' using household items. Place the elf wearing a coffee filter 'lab coat' with safety goggles, surrounded by labeled test tubes (clear straws in play dough), beakers (small cups with colored water), and a clipboard with 'Top Secret Experiment: How to make kids laugh.' Add funny fake formulas like '2 cups giggles + 3 tbsp silly faces = best day ever!'

What you'll need

  • Coffee filter
  • Small safety goggles
  • Clear straws
  • Play dough
  • Small clear cups
  • Colored water

How to set it up

  1. Cut the coffee filter into a square and place it over the elf's shoulders to create a lab coat.
  2. Put on the safety goggles for the elf.
  3. Roll small balls of play dough and insert a straw into each to create test tubes; label them with funny names.
  4. Fill small clear cups with colored water and label them as beakers.
  5. Place the elf at the center with the clipboard reading 'Top Secret Experiment: How to make kids laugh' and add funny formulas around the scene.

Tips & variations

  • Use food coloring to make the water in the beakers more vibrant and fun.
  • Encourage kids to help come up with their own silly formulas for extra engagement.
  • Switch up the formulas each day to keep the experiment feeling fresh and exciting.
