For slightly more explosive fun, check out this list of 15 science experiments that pop, fizz, and crackle! (Goggles might be advisable for a few of these experiments. Clothes that you can get messy doubly so!)
Finally, if you’ve got kids asking how fireworks work, point them to this article, which explains the science behind aerial fireworks.
