I approve of your quest to turn the next generation of bratlings into Geeks.
A friend of mine (formerly a neuroscience, now a MBA for a pharmaceutical company) has young elementary-aged kids. She finds tons of experiments for them to do on pinterest and... hm. On other websites as well. One of them was cutting open a glowstick, pouring the contents into a jar, closing the jar, mixing it so it coats the inside of the glass, and adding sparkles inside. It was an easy way for her to teach her kids about fireflies without actually getting fireflies.
But the fire and ice aspect of science is freaking awesome. Or methos and coca-cola rockets. I like those rockets too.
