Tricks on April Fool's Day

It's probably not very easy to fool a kid these days, but folks at the Grayslake Area Public Library tried their best during their Cool Science program Tuesday.

The program was called April Fools' Day Science Tricks and was open to students in third through sixth grades.

Different science experiments were conducted with many surprise endings.

About 16 kids attended the program.

One trick demonstrated Bernoulli's Principal that allows an airplane wing to create loft.

Kids held a blow dryer over a roll of toilet paper to make it fly off the roll. The trick didn't go as well as planned. One kid commented, "Experiments don't always work, that's science.
