A new mad scientist, Elemancer, has concocted a dastardly plan to take over the world! We'll need to gather a stellar team of brilliant young scientists to stop him, because the only way to stop a mad scientist is with even greater feats of mad science! Mad Science Lab is an 8-week, fizzing, foaming, and fun experience for 9-12-year-old young scientists who want to learn about chemical reactions through experiments with, dare we say, mad, results.
