Daniel and his Bubble Gum Experiment

Daniel and his father Damine Tulloch

I went up to see the Grandchildren and the family dog this weekend. I gave the dog a new toy that she just loved.  David was having a good time playing. Damine watched the football games on Sunday. Stephanie made a rainbow cake.

Daniel surprised me with his school science project. He did it all by himself. 

In his experiment, he compared Hubba Bubba with Double Bubble  gum to see which gum could stretch the most.  

Here are the two items tested.

Daniel used the island in the kitchen and stretched the gum as far as he could without it breaking. Then he used a measuring stick to keep track of his progress. He gave both 3 attempts. 

His conclusion, Double Bubble  stretched 10 inches while the other brand stretched only 8 inches. Daniel says that Double Bubble has more sugar in it and that is why it stretched that far. 

When I was 11 years old, I never thought of doing an experiment like this and I had a lab in my basement.
