I have never seen what is called a “Popsicle Stick Chain Reaction” or a “Stick Bomb” before, and now I am so intrigued. I must try this cool activity with my tween! I recently saw this video on Craft and new that I had to share. My tween doesn’t know it yet, but after homework is done, this is going to be our after school crafty activity to try. We have used popsicle sticks for many craft projects, but I am looking forward to combining it with a little science and see what happens.

Check out the 1000 stick chain reaction video below …

and the great DIY on how to make your own from jayauldenparnell.

And this was our attempt at it:

So fun!
