Elf is getting ready to disappear again, back to the North Pole!

Elf slowed things down today to test how colour travels 🧻🌈

No pushing. No mixing.

Just water creeping along tiny fibres, carrying food colouring with it to create a beautiful, vivid rainbow!

Sometimes the most powerful science is the quiet kind.

(Big test coming tomorrow… 👀)

Elf skipped the oven and went straight for… fireworks 🥔🔥

Turns out sparklers burn hotter than you think.

Science or madness?

Elf took a break from fuel testing to check the sleigh’s navigation system 🌈👀

If Santa’s travelling through snow, clouds and starlight, he’ll need light split just right to guide the way.

Turns out a simple torch and prism can reveal all the colours hiding inside white light ✨

Science magic at its finest.

Elf tried scaling up his containment system… and the sleigh fuel fought back 🫧❄️

Overflowing. Bubbling. Uncontained.
Back to the drawing board?

Elf knew the sleigh fuel was powerful — now he needed to control it 🕯️👀
By changing the air pressure, the liquid was pulled in, not pushed out.
Could this be the solution?

Elf is brewing up some cool Christmas chemistry with a rack of bubbling test tubes! 🧪🎄✨

Today he explored the magic of dry ice, dropping it into test tubes of coloured liquid and watching thick white clouds spill over like a winter wonderland. The tubes fizzed, fog rolled out, and the whole scene looked like Santa’s secret science lab! ❄️💨

Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, and when it warms up it skips the liquid stage and turns straight into gas — a process called sublimation. That rapid change creates the dramatic fog effect, making it a brilliant way to see science come to life (or mist!) before your eyes.

Elf decided yesterday’s glowing sleigh fuel needed a stress test… ❄️✨

Adding dry ice may not have been in the safety manual 😳

Would you trust this to power Santa’s sleigh?

Elf thinks he’s found a new fuel source for Santa’s sleigh… 😳🌪️✨

Would you trust this to get him back to the North Pole?



15/12/2025

Elf wasn’t happy with yesterday’s rocket test… so he built a foil one 🚀🔥

Would this get him back to the North Pole? 👀
