Vicki Cobb's SCIENCE SURPRISES is a highly entertaining, fast-paced, one-woman show that is guaranteed to captivate kids and their teachers. She answers the questions "Why science, anyhow?" by showing how our senses and experiences limit how much we can learn of the universe and that science is a way of getting past our limitations. Instead of showing the world of science, Vicki invites the audience to discover the science in their world. Everyone experiences illusions and individuals participate in doing irresistible challenges from her best-selling books Bet You Can't and Bet You Can. Most importantly, Vicki's program gets kids excited and enthusiastic about science and creates many openings for teachers to follow-up on. Check out her website at http://www.vickicobb.com/
