Kitchen Science with Mabby & Lid
Hello, grown-ups! Sparkwell Kids makes short kitchen-science episodes for young children. Mabby (a curious 7-year-old) and Lid (a worried-but-brave talking pot lid) ask a question, make a guess, and test it with everyday kitchen things.
Printable Lab Cards
Each episode has a one-page Lab Card for doing the experiment at home or in class: what you need, a Grown-Up Check safety box, a prediction to circle, and space to draw what happened.

How we keep it safe
- Every experiment is done with a grown-up, and each card has a Grown-Up Check box.
- Every experiment is checked in a real kitchen before we animate it.
- This site is for grown-ups only. There are no links here aimed at kids, and nothing to sign up for.
