Today, Crazy Science camp played with "homemade sparklers" or basically just burned magnesium over a candle and watched the exciting sparkler-like reaction. This was an ideal experiment fourth and fifth graders, especially the boys because they got to feel responsible enough to do their experiment with fire but still got to burn stuff. I felt like I was back in chemistry lab and got to burn a strip of two myself. More importantly, it made awesome slideshow and brochure pictures that were very entertaining to take!
